    hmmm,.. but one question.. are the sparks in diff directions or variably timed ? like with a micro second delay.??
    although u have 2,4 or 6 headed plug,,, the spark is just one...

    The spark came from the CDI unit itself...
    in DTSi the sparks are in variably timed.

    I choose an NGK Iridium,,, with a correct heat range.

    Was wondering ....Considering the stock plug is a 2 point plug....and the ngk is a single point one....would it by any chance cause any prob?
    i dont think it would be a problem .. on top you will get increase in millege and pick up

    @Sam 92: NGK recommends CR7EIX for the Apache. Dont know when the site was updated so it may as well be the older one.
    BTW,will installing these spark plugs in the Gladiator result in increase in mileage and throttle response?
    yup .. millege will increase and even the throttle response will be crisp ..
    it happened for me .. dont know about gladiator or any other bike

    DPR7EIX-9



    oh and guys, the low resistance wire mod i was talking about, it seriously does produce RF interference. if you'd rev your bike even some distance away from a tv set, you would see lines on the screen and kind of hear the engine revving on tv. no kidding!
