Spark Plugs
I run the Autolites in my 98 LR and don't seem to be having any problems, not to mention my Wallyworld is only bout 4 blocks from my house and they are about $4 a pair. They also carry my oil filter for bout $6 but I think I will go back to the Wix I got at Oreilly's for $11 because it is twice as long and holds more oil. I live in the Dallas/Ft. Worth, Tx area and ride my bike all the time putting 60 to 80 miles a day on it. The extra oil just makes me feel betterbout riding in all the traffic we have here.
I ran autolite in my 94 Heritage along with autolite in my 98 Classic. \\; Never had any problems with them or Bosch plugs. \\; one thing for sure, I will never run the Harley plugs again. \\; Had problems with them in both bikes. \\;
NGK IRIDIUM BPR5EIX-11 for me.
20k miles and tips are clean and has never missed a beat, smaller tip platinum or iridium fire easier and adds life to the coils and wires. \\; Also the irid and plats are good for 100k.[8D]

I just bought a pair of the Denso Iridium plugs. \\; The tip is even smaller than the NGK. \\; I've heard starting a cold bike is much easier with the Iridium plugs. \\; Any truth to this? \\; At 10 bucks a piece that's a heafty increase over \\;a $4 pair of Autolites. \\; Didn't have a problem with the cost, I've pissed away 20-bucks on a lot more stupid things in my life.
There is no special sparkplug!! Some claim more h.p, Tq, improved fuel economy, and just more power period!
 \\;
About the only thing I noticed, is that SOME last longer than others. They do nothing else whatsoever other than they do one job only....and that is to SPARK!
 \\;
I've tried HD versions, Autolite, Champion(same as HD), NGK, Motorcraft, ACdelco, and so many others. They are all about the same.

In my opionion, there is no need to spend big bucks on special sparkplugs.

My '86 had autolight platnum 64s in it from the previous owner. I see that the bike is suppose to have 4265s in it. Anyone know the difference in the two plugs besides the 64s being one heat range colder?
 \\;
What's the 42 mean and why is the other plug only two numbers?
