I'm placing an order with the dealer for a couple items. Wanted to know if the buell spark plugs were worth adding to the order, or if another brand offered any benefits to a BPU Lightning(kn,opened airbox,spec ops pipe, stock ecm)? Bike runs fine as is, but it can always be better. Any input is appreciated. I'm considering a race ecm and ss drummer, so if there is any benefit when run with that combo, I'd be interested as well. Thanks for the space Badweb.

I think you mean the Pro Series Plugs...if so I have had good luck with them. Most notably I have seen the bike start a little easier and run more consistently when cold. When warmed up the performance is good right up to the 6-7k RPM range.

Got them in my bike now and swapped them out at 1000 miles from the stock. Don't really notice a difference but in essence they're supposed to have a better burn with the split in the center.

Don't think I've ever seen anyone posting about the pro plugs getting fouled. For what that's worth...
