Default Denso 0r NGK ??

I ordered up some stuff from gofasters & was gonna buy some spark plugs from them but they were listed for over $16.00. I asked em how come so much & they said thats the Denso plug that comes stock on the bike. gofasters also sell the NGK plug for $3.00. I bought my bike used & have only run the NGK. Dose any body here use the Denso & know if theres any diff. between the 2 plugs.
Thanks

You must be talking about the Iridium plugs. If you do some looking around you can get those plugs for under $10. I use em and really like them.

Take your pick they both work excellent. The NGK's are just far more common and easy to get. I used the Denso plugs for years but now use the NGK Iridium just because my dealer has them for $10.

Dennis Kirk has the NGK for $10.50 and the Denso for $12.99

Exactly as Skidad says. They ND's must Iridium plugs.

I've used NGK's in my bike since I bought it (came with NGK too.)

Thanks, I thought it was an Iridium plug but gofasters called it a Denso. Skidad what is it you like about the Iridium over standard ? The 7 buck price diff. isn't exactly a deal breaker so I will try em out. I'm just curious what difference you notice, I have an Aprilia that takes 4 Iridiums & I can't tell any diff. when I run normal plugs but the Aprilia is a V-twin 4st pumping out 125 RWHP.

I find the Iridium lets the bike start much easier.
