Default Another Spark Plug Thread!

Soooo, Iridium or not to Iridium on the newer bikes? I thought the Ion Sencing was developed for the Soft Tail models and is it really a big deal if you have an aftermarket tuner??

Maybe this link will help, or just confuse the issue?

Here's another forum thread on the subject.

LOL, Yup!
So, is this now,how manufacturers suck you into going to and buying only their over priced parts and services so you become beholding to them and make them rich?? Also SE parts aren't really compatible with the MoCo product? So,once you deviate from stock configuration, say stock wires to SE Phat wires, you are also playing with the Ion system?

I'd say that you've reached the same, confused, conclusion that I did.
