Default M8 Spark Plug Equivalents?

I've been able to find lots of information providing equivalent spark plugs in various brands for the HD-6R12 spark plug, but virtually no equivalency tables for the HD-6R10 plug that's stock in the M8 engine. Does anyone know the equivalent plug in a NGK, Champion, etc.?

I've never had to change a spark plug on a modern 4 stroke....

Good question and thanks for asking. Have had it for years for the TC but having recently picked up an M8 this will be saved.

What's wrong with Harley plugs? No magic in aftermarket plugs.
