xb33bsa said:9's may not last as long,they may carbon foul quicker, they may not keep hot enough to be "self cleaning" that is what heat range is all about
it certainally wont hurt it to run 9's
i always carry a new spare set of plugs on the bike and a toolkit
firebane said:Just out of curiosity you said BR9ES.
Are you running some form of a custom coil setup? Most bikes don't use R plugs as they are resistor type and most spark plug caps are 5ohm reistance already.
i have been running the iridium 8 heat resistor type no issues (with resistor caps) but i am curious to know if there would be any pro con using straight connect capsduggyb said:So just got back from the bike shop and they proceeded to tell me they can no longer get B8es or 9 or anything without a resistor built in. According to him the resistor won't impede performance at all. He said he runs BRs in old bikes all the time and it no longer matters.
Anyone else chime in on this?
EDIT...Also according to the NGK website he is correct http://www.ngksparkplugs.ca/results-motorcycles.cfm?model=empty&enginesize=360&make=HONDA&apptype=Motorcycle
Thanks in advance
