Default HD Plugs

Gonna change my plugs. What is the differencebetween the HD 6R12 and the 6R12G plugs? Any advantage to using the G series as opposed to the standard plug. Any disadvantages. Just curious?

I run HD gold in mine. Could just be me, but I like 'em a lot and the bike seems to respond better.
