Yes if anybody is interested in purchasing those plugs, please do contact Harley Charlie to find out what his thoughts are about the product. He will go on to tell you all about this Incognito guy and what his product amounts to. There is also another member soft 02 that bought the plugs and noticed no difference. He used them in excess of 2000 miles and tried all of the recomended adjustments by pulstar. All he ended up with was an overpriced set of spark plugs that gave have sub-par performance and worse gas mileage. If memory serves me correctly, about 25% worse gas mileage.
I remember who and you do to. He had the plugs for a very long time. He said he was too lazy to get his money back if he even wanted to and really did not care. Incognito still offered him new plugs or a refund. So what is your beef?
No all the recommended adjustments were not tried..I remember the comment clearly.
There was an entire thread here where the pulstar plugs were independently dyno tested by someone with no interest in the company. The results were within a half of a horsepower of each other, which technically is within the pulstar claim of up to a 12% improvement over stock. Half of a hp is within the up to 12% range, right? In that thread there was also a guy that was not happy with the plugs and wanted a refund.
In this thread you insinuated that this warranty was something that Ingonito made up. This is the nationals chains unconditional warranty no matter who you buy them from.
Sounds complicated don't it? I know jcbyahoo did not understand it before ether. Buy them anywhere return them if they did not work..
That test was a joke and the propaganda that went with it. The bike was never let a chance for the ECU to compensate. This was proved beyond a shadow of a doubt IMO..at the end of the thread from plain ol reading comprehension... At best the same plugs were left in the bike for both tests. No way can to separate Dyno test have lines perfectly right on top of each other. What oh man. Not this waste of bandwidth again
You do not need a Dyno to know how to tune a bike or a car etc..
For folks who think they are helpless.

How do you propose to test short and long term fuel trim on a Dyno? Is it going to tell you how the bike responds on and of the gas repeatedly up hill down hill and sidways. What happens when you go just 500 foot up in elevation..
My buddies Sportster runs perfect. Yes with pulstars in his engine. I got to ride his bike before and after.
All pulstar was going to give him was another set of plugs, as Incognito put it, there must have been something wrong with the original set. I wish I could remember who that was, but since that thread mysteriously is gone, I cannot point the guy out. I am certain he would be more then happy to tell you about his experience though.

As far as finding an h/d dealer that sells this snake oil, thas pretty convienient that they would tell you that there is no problem running the plugs. I am sure that thei sales would be out the roof if they told you the truth about what the plugs will do. How many people have found harley dealers to be completely honest and upfront about somthing? They are all about the customer, not about the profit, right?
So far all you do is spread doubt and hate in any way possible. This is slander man.
Their is a H.D. dealer right here in my home town that sells them. Guess what? It will get complicated for you again. Return them if you don't like them lol.
This Incognito guy has made so many outlandish claims and while trying to simultaneously claim that he is a mechanic by trade and a rider by hobby. If anybody were to absorb the garbage he spews, it is obvious he knows little about either. The only thing he is good at is copying and pasting corporate propaganda in the hopes to swindle the money of hard working folks that are merely looking for something better. Unfortunately, he is not selling something better, and in a few months, the only ones that will remember the pulstar brand are the ones that wasted their money on it.
Looking forward to putting them in my 1990 Serra 1500 and my 1990 Sable I just scored with only 29 tho original miles on it!
Have heard good results from a fellow at a auto parts parts house with a truck just like mine.
Know a service writer with a Toyota truck I introduced them to that is raving over them. With yes a few more good customers in my automotive field of repair.
In my small engines mopeds they have increased torque substantially beyond a doubt in my own independent studies. Been using them since 2008. In my Motorcycle too.
What is pretty kewl is they sell them and manufacture right here where I live in Albuquerque
I am sure I could prolly find something they might not agree with?
One major observation...
You don't have a clue about these plugs at all jcbyahoo as you've never tried them. What is worse is all the useless slander you are nonchalantly putting out when you could have simply tried them for free already
No matter it is clear to me what you are trying to do..

That was already tried. Incognito did not like the results and then tried to blame the guy that ran the tests. Blaming him for not letting the ECU adjust to the plugs, then it was that he was running it too rich, and then it was because he did not retard the timing 3 degrees. Yes, thats right. The results were skewed because the guy running the tests did not RETARD THE TIMING 3 degrees. Anybody that knows anything about an interna combustion engine and how it produces power would know that this is BS. Yet pulstars secret to making more power is by retarding timing? How would an ECU adjust itself for this? They only retard the timing if spark knock is sensed to avoid detonation. The only way you could override this is to buy an expensive tuner for the bike. Yes, it may work, but tis is no longer a $50 spark plug change here, now it is in the few hundreds of dollars, right? All this to pick up half a horsepower?
Are you making this stuff up while you go along?? back through some of Pulstars propoganda and Incognitos garbage. He also claims that your rpms at a given speed will drop, as they have on his friends motorcycles. No gearing changes, just by changing your plugs. Thats right, no gearing changes to acheive a lower rpm. Wow, these things must be magic to pull that off. Either that, or Pulstar and Incognito are living in fantasy land.
On something as simple and small as a a 10 HP Morini engine with a ''centrifugal'' clutch I get this to happen for me as there is more torque available.
This clutch will break it's grip and go into progression mode when I get back into my throttle until it equalizes with what I am doing. The way I set up my clutch I have to snap my throttle a bit to break it into progression again. Clutch is set tight.
So to say it clearly going into familiar places with and with out the pulse ditty with the extra torque I don't go into progression again to get to a giving speed it holds there more steady.
Take a hammer hit it harder or softer. Which has more momentum?
