sup kids

i got my 7 in the shop being fitted with an akro evo titanium and ivans jet kit YUM

i've held off on the ignition advancer cause the guys said it could be more trouble than its worth on pump fuel + they arent a street bike performance shop with a dyno so they said take it to balls and they can make a mess of it, while its there i'll get them to put in the ram air tubes i got too

but to my question what sort of spark plugs should i get? some people say get these others say plugs are plugs... boo so confusing

I think the standard CR9E plugs will be fine man, and cheaper too. The iridium I think just lasts longer more than anything else, and the split fire type ones (CR9EX I think) might make a bit of a difference but I think they all have to be indexed to face the intake charge for full effect. There is also these new plugs available called brisk plugs, I want to give them a go on the race bike, but unfortunately for you they don't seem to work on all 7Rs????

The second lot would be right...

standard plugs at about $3 a pop are the way to go

can afford to change em more often and have nice new plugs again

NGK CR9EK. There are the split fire plugs. They do give an increase in power on the 7's. Someone dyno'd the difference and it was a couple of horsies i think. have a look at this link.

Yep - running the same on my 7.

Got Denso plugs in mine.

nothing wrong with normal spark plugs. they do the trick
