    GSX1100G spark plug caps....

    Hi all,

    This past weekend, I discovered that one of the spark plug caps on my 1100 was broken at the top, so I have purchased one new, OEM item on Ebay to replace it. Being the kind of person I am, I would like to replace all four of them, but those things are expensive; about $25.00 each with shipping. So I have two questions:

    1) are they "resistor caps" like they are on my 850?
    2) does anyone know of a good quality aftermarket alternative (NGK, Bosch, etc) that may be less expensive?

    Thanks again,
    Scott

    The last time I checked, the caps cost $6 at my local powersports dealer.

      $6.00 for a genuine Suzuki part, with the correct part number, or a generic one-size-fits-all?

        We sold NGK brand caps and they work fine. Find out which ones are correct. They have different ohm caps. someone will chime in.
