    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...

    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.

i have a 82 650g,been working on some LEAN issues and was going to replace my crispy plugs.got any opinions as to the best plug for my bike??any help welcomed. thanks
 
Stock plugs are hard to beat. If you are willing to spend more on the most durable plugs available, look at some iridium plugs. I wouldn't use them until your bike is properly sorted out but if it's running proper like, and you want the best, the iridium plugs should last for tens of thousands of miles.

Aaaaaaaand so will the stock plugs. Have you ever actually worn one out? No one I know has, either.

NGK Iridiums work perfectly fine -- they're simply a waste of money on a GS. But hey, it's your money.

At least they're not complete junk like many "performance" plugs. Don't fall for the Splitfire or multiple electrodes hooey, or the plugs with holes in the electrodes, platinum, rhodium, etc.

Make sure you use antiseize on the spark plug threads.
 
NGK D8EA is the correct and right plug for gs650g. Have to agree with others, Ngk makes best plug for your machine. Have found in most instances, best plug is plug that factory installed.
 
I've worn out plenty of regular ND and NGK plugs; the electrodes get rounded off and worn. Takes quite a while though so no complaints with durability considering how much those plugs cost.
 
I have to say, although I always thought those splitfires were a gimmick, I have a snowmobile that i put some in just for the fun of it, and they actually made a difference! Not just some ho-hum difference, but It actually reved quicker. Ive never tried these in a 4 stroke and always just run ngk's, but I thought Id at least share that tid bit with you guys.
