Champion Copper core plugs

[Charlie]

..... guess ive a lot to learn :

I do agree but as with anyone else on here, I will try to help.

[Bill P]

some people never learn look what the Post Lady just brought for some of my new to me bikes at least it'll mask there problems

[King of Kings]

Also current advice suggests using B7ES with modern shite fuel, less fouling, cleaner running

[Bill P]

God don't you start as well the Z650c you expressed interest in owning one once runs B7 plugs and is available
ive got some Bosch on stock to i wonder what the rivet counters would think to them

[King of Kings]

Have tried Brisk plugs? That will really get em going I’m contemplating the C2 still

No N3C's ?? I am shocked Which Jap bikes are you using the N3's in ?

How does the new Z900 compare with the Z1 you have pictured out on the roads BTW ?

[Bill P]

when i ride the 900rs it makes me wonder why i ride 70s stuff then on swap over i remember its a stonkin
bike in reality though , both my Z1r and a z650b have run the not to be named plug for yrs the z1r came with
them in from Italy four maybe five yrs ago and were still in when it left me a month ago, my other 650c2 which
is totally stripped at moment has had them in since i got it of noahs ark yes that long ago and they've never
been touched

Just been discussing carb issues with Steve
Smethurst and he suggested I use Champion
copper core plugs. Does anyone know the equivalent
to NGKB8ES?

Cheers Mike

Here we go ........my 2 penith is ....Never had issues with B8ES's in 44 years of using them , having said that I'm now ( last 2 years ) been using NGK Iridium's BR8IEX more expensive but seem to be very good ! Never tried later Champions as I never had good service from them when I was lad ...... yeh - times change , so doe's underwear ! Over N Out . Johny B

My brother has had Champions in his Z1B since about the start of the year and he thinks it’s starting better and is pleased with them so far. It wasn’t starting badly btw it’s just starting better. I’ve a set in the drawer to try but haven’t as yet so can’t comment. Times do change we all shifted to Denso for a while as NGK went through a real bad patch a number of years ago then they seemed to change the Densos and they were as bad. Champions are just another option.

A lot of this could be to do with changes in fuel

[rickm]

Weren't some of these spark plug issues related to cheap copies bought off the interweb ? (i.e. not genuine NGKs, etc)

[ADRIAN H]

Always use Denso’s now. NGK do not seem to last. Yes I do buy them from a local NGK approved motorcycle dealer - not from a website.

Remove a cylinder & add some Two-Stroke and you'll get an even wider range of opinions on which is the best (or worst) brand/type/heat range of Plug. Even Kawasaki didn't trust them so they gave you 3 spares under your seat .
