That part number is in the same heat range and will work, but it is NOT exactly the same.
While the motor company only recommends use of their original equipment Harley brand spark plugs, the other brands are acceptable and will not void your warranty.

Please....Harley runs the biggest scam on the market trying to make everyone think that their stuff is the only thing that will work in an HD.

I have Champs in my bike and they work fine.

Do you guys tune for mixture by looking at a plug that has been used in normal service? Or are you talking about reading after a plug chop?

Tuning via a spark plug is like pulling the positive cable off a battery to see if an alternator works.

It used to work. It doesn't any more.

Archer, give it a rest. Are you employed as an HD mechanic at a dealership? I am, so I think I may know a thing or two. Great Copy and paste job though. Ever heard of the Moss-Magnusson act?

I would not brag to much on this.....from my experience most HD mechanics don't know sh*t from shinola

deadhead, you sound like a dullard. His copy and paste is way off base. Shows what you know, you couldn't find the inaccuracies in his copy and paste post.
