RE: Champion spark plug # please
I have a '97 Road King with an S&S carb and before that a modified factory carb. I've run Split Fire, Harley, Champion, and now, the regularAutolite - the Autolites have lasted much longer thanthe others (I'm at7,800 on them now compared to 5,000 with the others). They tend to handle rich mixtures better and burn off where as the Champions and Harley's would just foul out and have to be cleaned or replaced. I've just gotten a set of NGK iridium plugs to try out whenever the Autoliltes need replacing - would have gotten the Autolilte iridiums but my parts house didn't have them....
Can't tell by advertising how any will run, my cousin that works at the parts house told me about how the Autolites worked well in an old hunting pickup that he had that would run rich on start up, the Autoliteswould burn off and run fine whereas the others would just stay fouled......it's worked for me!
Of course, as always, YMMV !

hey lottinala
if you are running HD branded plugs then guess what...
you have a champion plug.
Champion makes plugs for HD..put the HD logo on them. Do you really think HD makes anything but bikes.
HeLL...kurykan makes most of their chrome accessories. Seems like i read that sunoco or citgo make the oil, HDC makes the helmets. Thats just business.

Check what's currently in your motorcycle, I'm betting they're Champion. Foulded out yet? To me, changing brands would be like fixing what isn't broke regardless of the brand that's currently in the engine. I'd say plug fouling is usually caused by many things other than the spark plug itself. But we all have different preferences, for whatever reason.
