As long as you have Kashimaru-kun, you can finish the Chain exchange in a jiffy!
This time, it was Piece stuffing with Sprocket change, so I also did Cut.
Takes about 30 minutes
Kashimaru-kun is a little expensive, but I recommend it because you can easily do the Chain replacement work at home.

Genuine NGK products for peace of mind
I bought it here because it was time to replace the plug on my CB.
NGKPlug is said to have counterfeit products in the world on the Manufacturer's website, so I did not dare to buy it from a certain A company, but bought it from WeBig.
Just to be sure, I contacted WeBig and was reassured that it was definitely an authentic product.
I would hate to install a counterfeit product without knowing it and have my car go bad, so I think it was the right decision to purchase from a reliable source.
The one that came as an OEMPlug was NGK R, so I am not sure how it compares, but it seems to be working well for now.

It is more than expected.
I have always wondered if I could do something as gentle as possible for the engine of my SR400, which I have been riding for 36 years. So, when it was time to replace the oil and filter, I started to consider purchasing this product in the hope that the increased flow of oil would also increase the cooling effect inside the engine.
This Manufacturer's Filter seems to be well-known in cars, and I did a lot of research on the Net, but there are pros and cons. My biggest concern was that the filter's grain is a bit coarser than fiber ones, and iron dust and other particles could pass through and damage the Engine. There were many theories on that point as well, and I could not get enough information to be certain.
However, I am currently changing the Oil myself every 2,000 km and the Oil I pull out is not so cloudy in color. I decided to purchase this product because I thought it would be better for more Oil to go to various parts of the car.
When I installed it and started driving, the first thing I noticed was the increased Torque feel. Single cylinder engines can be choppy at low rpm, but this has been reduced. I also feel that the throttle response has improved, and after driving about 100 km, I am not sure if it is the Brush-boosting effect.
Since it is not yet time to replace the Oil, we do not know how effective it is as a Filter. I will report back if there is any large change at the next oil replacement.

I think I'll have to ask a store to install it.
The texture is good, and I am generally satisfied because I have not had any difficulty in seeing, which is often said to be the case with bar end mirrors.
(Although the eye movement distance increased compared to OEM Mirror, it was not a problem because the purpose of the replacement was to make it easier to remove Mirror at Circuit.)
My favorite point is that the product is eMark certified, so it can pass vehicle inspections as is.
Note that installation on the R1M requires the OEM handlebar to be removed2 and the inside of the handlebar to be destroyed/removed with a drill.
At first, I thought I could do the DIY installation by myself, but in the end I gave up and asked the store to do it for me.

Purchased and installed for dress-up purposes, not for replacement due to wear.
So we don't know anything about any kind of change in performance.
When I first purchased REBEL, I was thinking of going with Gold chain, but was KnockOut by the Impact of the Black & Gold look.

Z400,Touring use
[How is it used?
Used on a '22 Z400.
Touring use Main.
Impressions after about 6 months and 1,000 km after installation.
No rain run.
Maintenance only lubrication every 500km.
Was the one you received as per Image?
As per Image.
Black Plate, Gold Pin, and Roller looked extremely austere.
Was the installation difficult?
I have exchanged Chain many times so it is not a difficult task for me.
If you are going to take on the challenge of installing a chain, you will need to wear clothes that can get dirty, parts cleaner to wipe off any dirt, proper tools to cut and crimp the chain, and enough time to do the research before you start the installation.
How was your experience with it?
First of all, the fee rings are smooth for touring use, and I used RK's Chain for the first time in more than 10 years, and the fee rings are comparable to those of DID's touring use, which I used to prefer.
However, it is not as light as the for-race non-seal chain, but since lightness is not necessary for touring and city driving, choosing 520RXW for RK, 520VX3 for DID, or 520SRX2 for EK will be sufficient for your needs.
Also, the best merit of this product is the use of black plate, which is very good for a rider like myself who only needs to lubricate and finish maintenance. Chain lube also removes dirt. (Oil to remove oil) Therefore, gold and silver chains require a lot of time to polish to remove black stains, and the stains are easily visible. However, since this product is black plated, black stains are not noticeable, maintenance time can be shortened, and stains are not so noticeable when driving.
Also, the initial elongation is not that bad, and I feel it is rigid enough.
[Included Parts:were they on?
Rivet Joint
Sticker
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
None in particular.
Some may be disappointed to find that the plating on the roller has peeled off, but this is a natural consequence of the contact surface of the roller with the Sprocket.
Opinions and requests to Mr. WeBig
In Mr. We-Big's ShoppingSite, most of RK's Chain product names including this product are out of date and do not match the Chain product names on RK's Home page. Mr. WeBig often offers bargain sales of DID's Chain products, but he rarely offers bargain sales of other manufacturers' RK and EK's Chain products. (Please forgive me for my frank opinion.)

Stable ignition, high starting performance, and extraordinary effectiveness even in carburetor vehicles
The other day, the Engine on my TRX850 would start, but it was kind of bobbing and smoldering, and when I let go of the Axel, it would not Idle.
If the Engine is on, it is an unexplained Trouble, even though fuel, compression, and ignition should be working.
Idling adjustments do not improve the symptoms at all.
I went TroubleShooting while staring at the Service Manual.
In the case of the TRX850, even though it is a carburetor car, it is equipped with a Throttle position sensor (T.P.S.), so we first adjusted the T.P.S. The gap was set to a larger amount than standard.
After adjusting the T.P.S., I tried to start the engine, but this time the Cell Motor would turn, but the engine would not start. After cranking the engine several times, the Exhaust System started to burn and the engine would not start! After cranking several times, there was a big After Fire from the Exhaust System.
What, does the explosion mean that the fire is flying from the Spark plug? Does that mean that fire is flying from the spark plug?
I removed the Plug and checked the spark situation, and sure enough, the fire was flying. The spark plug at this time is a standard Register plug. When I bought my TRX850 last year, I replaced it with a new one at the Shop and it has only been used for a few hundred kilometers.
I was going to contact the Shop where I bought it, but unfortunately the store is closed because there is no successor.
After thinking about the cause for a while, I thought, hmmm, if After Fire occurs, it means the fuel is too rich.
Checked the Spark plug again, fire is flying but the area around the electrode part looks kind of Blackish. Finally, I was prepared for Carburetor's fuel condition & overhaul, and replaced the spark plug with NGK Iridium Plug (DPR8EIX-9).
The engine was in excellent condition, as if the previous unexplained malfunction was a lie! I made the Idling adjustment again and it was perfect.
The sparks were flying, but they were not stable. What a fall, so to speak, under the lighthouse.
By the way, I tried to polish the carbone of the removed and tattered Standard Plug BP5HA with Brass Brush, but it did not come off easily. It is not reusable.
But why did the sudden engine malfunction and spark plug rash occur when I had been running normally and had done nothing wrong?
Lesson learned, just because the Spark plug is new doesn't mean it won't cover you, and when it does, it will cover any Timing. It is best to have a spare.
To replace the Spark plug on the TRX850, the Radiator must be removed.
This time, we did not have a spare Coolant Drain Washer, so we removed the Radiator Mount Bolt, shifted it, and finally replaced it.
What are Iridium plugs?
Spark plugs are parts that lead the mixture fed into the engine to explode, and their role is to ignite the mixture.
Iridium plugs are called Iridium plugs because Windshield IRIDIUM Alloy Gold is used for the sparking electrodes, but what are their effects and characteristics?
Iridium plugs are effective and unique.
Iridium plugs are effective in the following six ways
1. High combustion efficiency
2. Extract Engine Performance
3. Excellent acceleration performance in the mid to high RPM range
4. Stable ignition performance
5. High Engine Startability
6. Less susceptible to Carbon
■Effect 1:High combustion efficiency
Iridium plugs have thinner electrodes and are processed so that sparks fly easily and are not dispersed, producing efficient combustion.
Since it does not interfere with the growth of the spark after ignition, the flame spreads quickly and the air mixture can be burned thoroughly.
■Effect 2:Drawing out Engine performance
Iridium plugs produce efficient combustion, which brings out Engine performance.
Compared to a standard register plug, the new plug has a more efficient ignition performance and burns the fuel mixture more efficiently, so the explosion power is larger and the engine performance can be expected to be enhanced.
Effect 3:Excellent acceleration performance in the mid to high RPM range
It improves the Torque feel at low RPMs and provides excellent acceleration performance in the mid to high RPM range of the Engine.
The efficient ignition performance of the Iridium plugs produces a powerful explosion with fast combustion spread, resulting in smooth acceleration.
Effect 4:Stable ignition performance
The high ignition performance of Iridium plugs is also one of their benefits, as it allows sparks to fly consistently into the air mixture.
By making the center electrode ultra-thin and using a taper process or similar process, sparks do not fly off and concentrated ignition with little loss can be achieved.
■Effect 5:Less susceptible to Carbon, etc.
Iridium plugs also have the effect of burning off the Carbon at the electrodes.
Even if Carbon or other substances adhere to the electrode, they can be burned off by a small discharge.
[Iridium plugs feature.
What are the features of Iridium plugs? Sparks fly well." Durable." It is
With Windshield IRIDIUM, the central electrode is made as thin as possible to prevent sparks from flying around it.
Compared to common register plugs, the higher melting point of Windshield IRIDIUM also makes it more durable and corrosion resistant.
[Merit of Iridium plugs
Merit using Iridium plugs is the following 5 points.
1. High ignition performance
2. Extract Engine Performance
3. High durability of Plug
4. Improved fuel economy
5. hardy against smoke
■Merit 1:High ignition performance
Iridium plugs have high ignition performance to the air mixture.
The electrode is processed to be extremely fine, so it can ignite the air mixture more intensively without waste, and the small area at the tip of the electrode suppresses the cooling effect that extinguishes the fire after ignition.
The high ignition performance is merit because the fire is maintained and grows into a larger flame.
■Merit2.Plug is very durable.
Windshield IRIDIUM, which has a high melting point, is used for the electrodes, making them highly durable.
Since the role of the plug is to ignite the air mixture inside the engine, it is continuously exposed to high pressure and high temperature.
■Merit3.Engine performance
The efficient ignition performance of Iridium plugs brings out the performance of the Engine.
The Merit does not interfere with flame growth, creating a more large explosive power, and brings out engine performance, such as improved acceleration performance, especially in the mid to high RPM range.
Merit 4:Improved fuel economy
Higher combustion efficiency directly translates into better fuel economy.
Fuel efficiency is proportional to the amount of Axel opened and the time it takes to open it, but if combustion efficiency is good, acceleration will occur without opening more Axels, and fuel efficiency will increase.
Merit5. Smoldering-resistant
Since the electrode part of the Plug is located in the combustion chamber of the Engine, combustion residues such as Carbon generated by the explosion are likely to adhere to it.
Iridium plugs maintain ignition performance because a small discharge burns off the carbon attached to the inside of the insulation.
Carbon is more likely to be generated and adhered to by prolonged low-speed driving, so it is a higher Merit for those who are doing Main daily riding such as commuting to work or school, where Carbon is more likely to adhere.
[Demerit of Iridium plugs]
Demerit of Iridium plugs is mainly threefold
1. maintainability
2. Prices are higher than other Plug
3. Fuel conditioning may be required.
We will explain in turn.
■Demerit1.Maintainability
Iridium plugs are more difficult to maintain than other plugs.
If the electrode is wet or has a lot of soot on it, such as Carbon, it will need to be cleaned to maintain performance.
However, the electrodes of Iridium plugs are extremely thin, and if they are brushed with a wire brush, as is the case with register plugs, they will be damaged in the worst case, making maintenance difficult.
■Merit2.Higher price than OEMPlug
Iridium plugs are more expensive than Register plugs used by OEMs.
Iridium plugs are generally two to three times more expensive, and in the case of motorcycle Iridium plugs, the replacement cycle is the same as that of the register plug, which is usually 3,000 to 5,000 kilometers.
As more people are concerned about fuel economy, Demerit is also priced higher than the OEMPlug because the running cost per distance is also higher.
Demerit 3. May need to be fueled.
Iridium plugs increase combustion efficiency, so some vehicles require fuel adjustment.
The increased combustion efficiency allows thinner fuel to be used, which can cause the fuel to be too thick and cause blistering if it is left unregulated.
This is relatively unlikely to happen with recent Injection Motorcycles, but with Carburetor Vehicles, fuel adjustment may be necessary, and depending on the type of vehicle, it may not be enough to simply replace the plug.
The difference between Iridium plugs and regular plugs.
The difference between Iridium plugs and common register plugs is the difference in the genus Gold used for the central electrode.
Iridium plugs use Windshield IRIDIUM Alloy Gold for the central electrode, while Nickel Alloy Gold is used for the general register plugs used by manufacturers OEMs and others.
The melting points of the materials used for the electrodes are different.
Windshield IRIDIUM has a melting point (the temperature at which an individual begins to turn into a liquid) of 2,446°C, while the Nickel used in the Register plug has a melting point of 1,455°C, a difference of about 1,000°C.
The high melting point of Windshield IRIDIUM allows it to withstand stronger explosions and to be processed into thinner electrodes that favor combustion efficiency.
There is also another PlatinumPlug (WhiteGoldPlug) made of Platinum alloy Gold, but the melting point of Platinum is 1,769°C, which is between Windshield IRIDIUM and Nickel.
[The speed of combustion spread and combustion efficiency are different.
Iridium plugs allow sparks to fly to the fuel mixture and ignite it with less waste compared to typical register plugs.
The speed at which combustion spreads after ignition is also different because a stable spark can be generated with less waste.
If we look at the flow from the ignition of Iridium plugs and Register plugs on the same time line, Iridium plugs are more efficient in combustion because Iridium plugs burn more mixture.
Iridium plugs are ineffective on old and carburetor vehicles?
Iridium plugs are sometimes said to be ineffective when used on older or carburetor vehicles (Carburetor Vehicles), but the conclusion is that Depends on the type of car and how it's used." It is
Not all carburetor vehicles, but even carburetor vehicles can benefit from the excellent effects of Iridium plugs, and even if they seem incompatible, they can be ridden without problems after fuel modification.
Fuel adjustment is necessary when covered.
When Iridium plugs are covered, it is often caused by the mixture being too thick, and may be corrected by thinning or otherwise adjusting the fuel mixture.
If Plug is covered, it should be replaced with a new one.
As mentioned above, maintenance of Iridium plugs is extremely difficult because of the extremely fine and precise electrodes.
FAQ about Iridium plugs
Are Iridium plugs easy to cover?
When I replaced them with Iridium plugs, they covered them." That being said, if the fuel is adjusted (fuel conditioned) with a thicker Gasoline, it may be a rare case of a car model being covered.
If Iridium plugs are used and they get covered, the fuel mixture should be adjusted at the same time.
How do you maintain Iridium plugs?
Maintenance of Iridium plugs is performed by removing the plugs and checking for burns, wear, and soot around the central electrode.
If it is properly burned, it is a golden brown color; if it is white, it is overcooked; if the area around the electrodes is damp, the fuel is too thick and may cause a rash, and should be cleaned or replaced.
Iridium plugs have precise electrodes, so cleaning them with a wire brush may cause damage.
What is the lifespan of Iridium plugs?
The life expectancy of Iridium plugs for 2-wheeled vehicles is generally 3,000 to 5,000Km, but it also depends on how the vehicle is driven.
If you ride a Motorcycle with the Engine running GunGun in the summer, the standard replacement is 3,000Km. If you ride a Motorcycle for daily use such as commuting to work or school, or if you are touring for main use, the standard replacement is at 5,000Km.
Also, if the car has not been ridden for more than a year, it is a good idea to replace it with a new one before riding.
Which is better for Iridium plugs, NGK or Denso?
NGK and Denso are the distributors of Plug, Which is better." It is a matter of preference as to which one to choose.
The more detailed electrodes produce a stronger electric field strength, and although Denso has more detailed electrodes than MGK, the difference is not at a Level that can be felt on public roads, so it is best to choose according to preference.
【Summary】
Iridium plugs with Windshield IRIDIUM for electrodes can be used to improve combustion efficiency and Engine starting performance, and to draw Engine Power.
It is an excellent plug with a long life and high durability, and is resistant to smoldering caused by carbon, etc. However, depending on usage conditions, it may be used in extremely rare cases. "Beware." Symptoms may occur, in which case appropriate adjustments should be made.
