A while back I decided to change out my plugs. I'm not gonna pay Harley $10 for a $3 Champion plug ,so I went to the napa (No auto parts available) store. The didn't have any plugs. Then I went to advance auto parts, the didn't have any either. I said what you got that's close, they gave me a set of NGK plugs. The were gapped correct right out of the box. I put them in and they worked / ran fine. I noticed 20-30 more HP along with 50 lbs more lbs of torque. I noticed women seemed more attracted then ever to me. And i was getting more free stuff in the mail. I got a raise at work, and a letter from the government saying they were sorry about a mistake they made on my taxes, and gave me a big refund, with an extra 10% for my inconvenience. Those new NGK plugs are really something.,,,
The spark plugs all do the same job. Go the the HD counter, buy the plugs when the service interval hits. Check the gap and adjust accordingly, and ride on. The air pressure in your tires affects your mileage and power more than the spark plugs do.

Edit, I guess his issue was with E3 spark plugs. Didn't look any of them up to see what they were, but here's a link to his thread if it matters
