the manual calls for the iridium plug. ngk imr9a-9h or the denso iuh27d. i just cant beleive that i cant just put a ngk cr9e in that thing n it be fine... the dealer says go iridium but theyr 14 bucks a piece!!! WTF!!! my 636 runs the cr9e and they are like 4 bucks a piece. they are the same heat range, what is the differance?

 

I don't see why not ? My gixxers ran the CR9E. From what I have read the only difference is the other one is iridium. Here is what iridium does better.....

Enhanced Ignition Efficiency

Better Motorcycle Acceleration

Enhanced Throttle Response


Faster Starting & Smoother Running

Longer Life

Better Fuel Consumption

Longer Lasting

IMO the only difference u will see is longer life.

 

god forbid you pay 15 bucks for a quality part!

 

+1

$56 bucks beats the cost of a new motor ANY day in my book

 

yeah id rather run them cr9e and change em once a year when i check my valves than pay all that money for the satisfaction of having the greatest plug in the world or some **** like that. i dont even think my f4i is worth that much money... hahaha jk

 

LOL I've never seen a spark plug trash a motor, when they both have the same heat range. With the exception of getting the wrong ones thus making them to long to where they hit the pistons or something stupid like that.

 

wow you guys have it bad! My buddy paid over $80 for 4 Honda/NGK plugs for his 929.

 

^^^cyclegear^^^lol

 

i dont know what plugs can do to a bike but i put the wrong plugs in a car and blew a hole in a pistion. i payed $75 for my 929 plugs. i will never go cheap to fix my bike or truck its better in the long run. i also payed $8 a plug for my girls car y go cheap.
