    Spark Plugs

    I'm wanting to change the plugs on my bike (91 CBR 600, 27k).

    Any thoughts on good plugs to get? Tips on changing the plugs? I've changed plenty of plugs in cars, but never on a bike before.

    Thanks mucho!!!

    Be polite. Be professional. But be prepared to kill everyone you meet.

    I’ve heard that it’s best to remove plugs cold b/c of heat expansion. And never never never over torque...duh.

    NGK is a good brand, don't waste your money on the iridium ones though, I couldn't tell one bit of difference and they cost about $7.00 a pop.
