I change my plugs every spring. Thinking about trying the Champion Race only 299 QA55V.They are on sale now for $3.99 They are a surface discharge plug no gap to set. What do you think, I pay more for a bear at my local bar!![](http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/clipart/beer.gif) |

I run the NGK Iridium, some people like them others don't, when my bike was dead stock the iridium plugs sure made an improvement, didn't expect that little extra power form spark plugs. |

I run the Iridium now, but a race plug just sounds like fun.![](http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/clipart/checkeredflag1.gif) |

I just purchased a set if the Denso Iridium race plugs for my XT. I currently have NGK Iridiums. They seemed to make a big difference when I installed them, especially at the low end. I will change them over when I have a chance. The Denso Race Iridium plugs just seemed extra fun. |

Yamafreak I used to run those in a hopped up H1 kawasaki,just because they did not foul as easy.I can not see any reason to use them in a buell. Strange thing I see you are from Hagerstown, I sold that H1 to somebody in Hagerstown back in 75 |

I once tried racing brake pads on my M2. They worked great, and the bike stopped much quicker. 2,000 miles later, the pads were worn down, and the brake rotor was junk. What will racing spark plugs do for your engine? What will they do To your engine? |

10R12A works just fine for me. Why reinvent the wheel, just so you can say you did? |
