Platinum spark plugs?
Has anyone used these?
Does it make any difference?

Why not ask Brent, he brought a pair of them from me (at work) this week for his late 748 & says it seems to be running fine.

We run iridium in all our bikes, from the old snotty Jap bikes, to the 3 monsters.

As Alan says - I replaced some worn out champions with NGK platinums, and they are fine so far. Haven't had a chance to really get them hot yet though!

I have to say, nothing significant yet compared to the champions when they were OK. They may well be a bit better when I get a chance to thrash it on a longer run (which could have been what did for the old ones last weekend!).

Another quality thread from Shazaam.

My reason for replacing the plugs wasn't for any power increase, it was just that I had a 748 single on idle..... :D

Throttle response is good though.
