Default Wow these stock plug wires are junk!

Today I removed the stock plug wires on my 2012 FLHX & replaced them with some really neat looking fake stainless steel looking performance wires. www.uskoolines.com The stock wires are very thin & are of extreemly poor quality. You would think with what we pay for these bikes they could do better? LOL Well I have killer looking new plug wires on now & am much happier! Time for a beer!

The only thing you want from wires is you do not want them to crack and leak voltage. Stock wires are great in this regard.

Did you have to remove the tank to install?

Because they are not killer looking, does not make them junk.

Why did you replace them? Were they broken?

the stockers are junk. screamin eagle 10mm wire are much better. Yeah the stockers do the job but so does a lousy tire. good wires in a car make a difference

I changed mine to SE red wires, liked the way they looked and are larger.
