The maintenance schedule calls for spark plug replacement at 10,000 mi. Of course, the condition of the plugs is going to dictate whether or not they should be replaced. I use NGK Iridium spark plugs, Mobil 1 20W-50 V-Twin oil (+Buell filter), and 75W-90 gear oil. Nutty Mike. |

yup sure is synthetic. I changed plugs at 5000 also, more out of habit then a real nead. It also let me get a look at the plugs. In the XB board you can check out the thread "Plug to read" to see what I mean by it being a warning indicator of a problem also. |
