    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Resistor or Radio suppression.
The spark jumps a gap inside the porcelain insulator.
They will work just fine in your bike. ;)

R is resistor so it has a resistor inside to clean up (squelch) a shaggy spark. you won't tell the difference but a resistor plug will foul quicker if your jetting is off- or you double resistor your engine with stock caps and resistor plugs.

no performance gain. old sensitive stock TPI ignitions and wild AC magneto systems used on the street need resistor plugs.

I like the EG series of NGK plugs - the G is a fine wire electrode. They cost a little more but you can feel the difference.

The normal ES series has a fat electrode and cheap -- they work fine in most every situation

B7 for winter and B9 for summer hot / highway riding.
