    Champion = Best Spark Plug

    OK - I've always been an NGK guy since the late 70's when my Kawi dirt bike wouldn't run on anything else, but this past week I've had a change of heart.

    Spark Plug Condition

    So I just replaced the plugs in my Max with NGK Iridium's and decided to snap some shots of the old ones as I took them out. I thought perhaps someone might know if these look 'ok' or not? I've only owned it for about 2 months now so I don't know when they were last changed. So, when sitting on...

    Reading spark plugs

    My understanding is that the last "ring" of the plug indicates the fuel mixture. By saying last ring I mean the last section of the male threaded part that the ground strap is connected to. Correct? Anyone have any specific info on how to "read" the plugs to make sure all is goo? I've...
