Do you have the Part Numbers?

I remember reading something about Ducati's or Aprilia's and Ferrari's using them as stock plugs.

Might save a bundle if you just order them online and forgo them until you get back. Is your bike running OK right now? Enough to go on the ride?

P/N's are NKG: DCPR9EIX
Denso: IXU24

Although the NKG catalog lists it as DCPR8EIX}

Did you try BAP?

Maybe try Autohaus AZ @ (602) 276-9402
I know they stock NGK. They might have the Iridiums.

I bought a pair of the Pro Series plugs in preparation for doing my 20,000 mile service.

I must say I was pleasantly surprised at the improved response as that was the only thing "different" upon finishing the service.

I would recommend them.

if you have a local Aprilia/Duc shop, check there for the NGK Iridiums (DCPR9EIX). a few of those bikes run the same plug stock.

I have run the Pro Series for the last 30,000+ miles with excellent performance. I change them out about every 8000 miles and they look pretty good every time...hardly any buildup at all on them.

You want the Denso 27 - not the 24 - 24 is too hot - if you use the NGK 9 number it will cross directly over to the 27 number - the 24 is the old spec before the plugs where raised to 10r12.

The NGK parts finder lists:
DCPR7E and DCPR8EIX for the XB9.

Why do the numbers keep changing?
