I hope this plug change is worth the effort.

Sorry had to vent.

why are you changing out the plugs so soon? I'm a rookie to the forum so for all I know people have been having good luck with a different type of plug/gap

 

[Dano]

I'll maybe change mine when I get around 10,000 miles on.

I am past being a newbie and I wonder why Scott is changing plugs too.

Scott, did you take off the sheetmetal bracket that the windshied and gauge pod mount to? It is like 4 or 6 10MM bolts and it opens up that whole area pretty good.

 

[Sidewinder]

Now you tell me

Im putting in a different plug to gain some HP.
As per Allens recomondations.

More HP, I'm all ears.

This is definetly the best way to access the plugs or anything else in this area. I find it is easier to just unbolt the black metal bracket and remove the bracket with the headlight/gauge pod still attached to the bracket.

let me guess the plugs, br10ek with duel electrode worth 2 hp.

Close but no free beer.. 3 HP on the dyno. cr 10 ek


Info given by John Wheelock after testing.

So cr 10 ek are worth 3 HP ! Wow, thats impressive. Is that just a different heat range than stock or are there other differences? Any negatives to running them?

1 heat range colder and a dual electrode plug. The only downfall is they don't come with the threaded caps needed for the Apex plug boot. I should have sets available later this week.
