Default Blinking Spark Plug wires....

Who can tell me more about these? Are they durable, and do they take away from performance? Pros/Cons?

Thanks in advance!

Blinking wires reek. Is your bike EFI?

Think SE phat wires or the new ones from Accel. If ya' gotta blink dont do it in on a companent as critical as your plug wires!!

Don't screw around with that. You want your energy where it belongs: in the spark. The less energy reaches the sparkplug, the weaker your spark will be, and that will affect your ignition.

Watch the fvckin video Duece!! Do it!! LOL....

Hah...Hows about a few shots of yer' Duece so us total weirdo internet strangers can properly guide you on spending your money?

Just to put it in proper perspective....

Obamas Health Care Plan > Blinking Wires.

Eating yer' own poop > Obama's plan.

Blinking wires Vs' A mouthful of yer own poop?

You make the call. I'll pick Poop!!

LOL your killin me! About the pics....I dont have them yet. My story goes ...One day at work I was looking at CraigsList,as I do often on my lunch break. I found a 07' Nightster with 1500 miles and warrentied till 2011 for 5k. I jumped on it, and a few days later I was the owner. That bike was fast. I sold it for $9200 and bought a 07' Deuce with 4500 miles for 12k. I love it and do not plan on ever selling it. its Pearl Black, love the color. Right now it has Vance and Hines Big Radius duels,Arlin Ness Big Sucker intake (replacing it for a Kurakyn Hyper Charger) and the V&H ignition/timing thingy. The Heartland 200 kit/spoked rear wheel gets orderded next week along with some rear blinkers and a side licsense plate . I plan on going with the Z bars and lowering it and calling it day. I am very excited to show everyone here when its all done. =)

Chaz is a funny ahole. Yes now Im doomed with that damn song....should've put a disclaimer on it. I was waiting for Obama to start dickin the dog....a bunch of unqualified voters voted for him. Oh well....we all have about 16 Trillion $ to deal with in deficit come 2012, if we make it that long.

Blinky cables? Seem like a bad idea but if you do it...let us know what happens.
