cr9e or cr8e?

[Westy_mate]

Hey guys, nice and easy question for ya,

I have a ZX6R 2005 C1H and i was wondering what spark plugs i should run? cr9e or cr8e?

I ride my bike quite aggressively, often only a couple of days a week but full tit and i will be attending some track days coming up.

Manual says cr9e ngk

Which one??

thanks in advance!

Stick with the 9's. Any performance gain (if there even is one) wouldnt be worth the possibility of the hotter range plugs damaging something.

Not sure if it's even necessary on a FI Modern bike, but on my 2 Smoker I run 8's for road, which helps with the fouling. And 9's at the track (so it's not as hot while being thrashed constantly).

Use the stock heat range but in Iriduim all good

Well the first thing I'd do, is do a little research on what the difference in heat range designations actually means, and what effects they have. Then ask yourself why the hell you'd want to deviate from what the manual specifies.

Secondly, why do squids feel the need to make statements like "I ride aggressive....full tit" and not expect people to think they're a bit of a tit?

Who said i was riding like a twat on the rd? stop Trolling, now that's some good advice.

hmm i dont sorry, however the higher the number e.g cr9e the ("9" being the number) the colder the plug meaning it fires at a lower temperature.

Yeah try NGK dot anything.:facepalm: Lots out there if you google it

What my learned trashy friend is eluding to is that 9 is a colder plug than an 8, at least in NGK brand.

[edit OP has now pointed that out, did you know that originally? why would you want to go to a hotter plug?]

You did.

Really? Do you?

Try the NGK website retard, it explains quite well exactly what all their model designations mean. And are you going to answer the question as to why you think you know better to deviate from than the recommended plug than the Kumandsukme engineers who spent years developing the bike?

I really do think the youth of today are getting thicker.............

A little frustrated are we? your anger really is amusing. get off Kiwibiker and have some real interaction with people. feel free to keep ranting.

Asked a local Kawasaki Mech and he suggested a hotter plug. didnt know why and wanted to crosscheck. ill stick with the 9's.

Nothing wrong with a bit of full tit on the road, given a suitable time and place. He didn't say he was going full tit whilst lane splitting on the harbour bridge at 8am did he? Not so serious now fellas.

On the back roads at a quiet time, who doesn't give it full tit may I ask? The old launch to 100, or dropping a gear to storm up a hill or 2; don't kid yourselves guys, come on.

fyi he's not a nutter on the road either I can attest.

No anger here sonny, and I get more face to face interaction that I can deal with, hence I love logging onto KB and seeing what the twits are up to.

Smart man.

There's plenty of us who are all too painfully aware that 10/10ths on any public road is a recipe for disaster.
