Title: Spark plugs
Post by: fireblake on 03 May 2019, 05:13:16 pm: I'm going to change my plugs soon as they've done 45k and I'm doing a lot of touring this year so thought it would be best to change them whilst doing a service. My worry is counterfeit plugs. I've seen some Iridium one for under £30 and the same in the mid £50's. Do I buy the dear one and expect them to be kosher or risk the cheaper ones?

If i put my bike number plate in their search engine box all i get is one type of out of stock Denso plug.

We have an account with them at work, but i've never used them yet as i've never seen what i wanted on their website.
I'll bear that in mind, although i've not long fitted new Iridiums so it won't be them i'm after for a very long time.
