A High Quality Spark Plug for your Performance Grom
About quality and texture: I am happy with the quality of the CR8EIX iridium spark plug from NGK, the fine iridium tip ensures a consistently stable spark and the trivalent metal plating provides superior anti-corrosion properties. About the feeling of use: With the ultimate design and technology put into the manufacture of this spark plug you get outstanding acceleration, high fuel efficiency and durability when compared to a standard NGK spark plug. Products to buy together: NGK also offer high performance spark plug caps which would also be desirable to purchase alongside the NGK iridium CR8EIX spark plug to remove any chance of the performance of the iridium spark plug being decreased. Difficulty of installation: The process to install takes about 5 minutes. Firstly, check the spark plug gap and adjust if required, then simply remove and install the spark plug and refit the spark plug cap securely. Not difficult to do. Cost performance and comparison with other products: Good costing as you are getting a better performing and more durable longer lasting spark plug as compared to a standard NGK spark plug, that is cheaper to purchase but is not as fuel efficient and will require changing more regularly which will lead to costing you more in the long run. About shipping and packaging: Sea freight was my preferred method of shipping due to the lower cost but currently this service is unavailable from Japan Post, EMS is much faster which is nice. Webike kept me updated on the status of my order up to when it shipped. The parcel arrived within the expected date range and was well packaged with no chance of the part being damaged. Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing: The original Honda spark plug heat rating is 6. Recommended heat rating for the stock engine is 6 or 7 and recommended heat rating for a big bore or high compression engines is 8 or 9.

Windshield IRIDIUM has a life expectancy of 10,000 km?
GN125H started to breathe occasionally and I decided to replace the Plug along with cleaning the Air cleaner element.
Since it is a Windshield IRIDIUM, I thought it would still be Large durable for 10,000 km or so, but the electrodes were clearly deteriorated compared to the new ones.
About 10,000 km seems to be the limit for Windshield IRIDIUM.
After replacing it with a new one, the Torque feeling goes up and the breathing is gone.
Do not overestimate the longevity of Windshield IRIDIUM.

Maybe it doesn't mean anything in particular...
I feel that the more solid the ignition is, the better the stalling and vibration, and the longer the service life (all of these things are true). I have a feeling." (Level)
Compared to the Standard Plug BP5HA, the price is 5~600 yen higher and more than twice as much, and yet the service life may be slightly longer. (Lol) 。
This may be one of the reasons why the old Motorcycle has almost one-shot startability in winter...

GSX400 Plug replacement
I have been using the Meter for 20000 km and recently I felt that the starting performance was getting worse, so I replaced the plug.
Idling is stable even in recent cold weather with vigorous one-shot starting and a short warm-up time.

Mood and performance UP!
[How is it used?
I got the D Tracker from a private seller, but first of all, I had to replace the plug. I decided to go out on a limb and install a Windshield IRIDIUMIX plug, which is about twice the price of the Standard Plug BP5HA.
Was the one you received as per Image?
The center electrode is very thin, but the appearance of the others is the same as the Standard Plug BP5HA.
Was the installation difficult?
Before removing the old plug, I carefully blew off the dust in the plug hole with AirBLOWER, removed the plug, checked the torque of the plug in the service manual, and tightened the new plug to 13Nm using a torque wrench.
How was your experience with it?
Hmmm, I can't tell the difference w
The D Tracker originally did not start very well, and this was due to the low jet (#35), so I installed #38 to improve the starting performance, so the Iridium plugs did not improve the starting performance. I changed the sprocket from the standard 14T to 13T for an acceleration type setting, and I don't think the fuel consumption has changed at all. So, unfortunately, I could not feel the benefit of the Iridium plugs (I cried).
[Included Parts:were they on?
None
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
I didn't have overly large expectations from the beginning, so I just thought, "Well, that's about the size of it.
How did it compare to other products?
The manufacturer's recommended replacement distance for high-end Plugs such as Windshield IRIDIUM for Motorcycle is actually 5,000km, the same as the Standard Plug BP5HA (general Plug). I heard that Plugs that use precious gold for both the center and outer electrodes (not for Motorcycle) can be used up to 10,000km. However, the MotoDXPlug for Motorcycle can be used up to 10,000km even though only the center electrode is made of noble gold, so it may be great? I have another Motorcycle (FZS600) with Standard Plug BP5HA CR8E, which runs over 5000km and is still in great shape even after 8,000km, so I dare Merit to choose a high-end Plug.... ......w I wonder if the high-end Plug can actually be used for 20,000km or 30,000km over 10,000km....... If so, I have a Merit to choose. I remember when I was writing this, my mini car may have run about 100,000km since I replaced it with Iridium plugs. It's a single cylinder, so it only needs one plug.

Some vehicles were a little worse with Windshield IRIDIUM, as if there was some kind of compatibility.
