one with a ring and chain on that will fit the drain properly ;)

edit: dont leave a gap or it will leak!

NGK D8EA.

You will find that the plug is correctly gapped from new.

Just pointing something out that I didn't know when I first started my sparkplug-a-week habit, and that's that the D8EA is compatible with the DR8EA. It wouldn't be so wise, though, to use a D8EA instead of an DR8EA (if that's what is specified).

My bike can use D8EA, DR8ES, DR8ES-L too, so they're also probably fine in your GN. As far as I can tell they're an identical size and gap, perhaps slightly different electrical characteristics but I haven't noticed anything.

Have fun, hope it's just a fouled sparkplug (like Pippi the A100 :().

Dude the only difference between a D8ea and a dr8ea is that the Dr has a resistor cap --wont affect the bike--might make yappin on ya celly whilst riding a bit fuzzy.

Good site for checking your plug type and gap ....http://www.spark-plugs.co.uk/


And here will tell you what all the numbers mean ...http://www.spark-plugs.co.uk/pages/technical/ngkjpg.htm

have you not even swapped plugs on that gn yet???

we cannot get it OUT... hence why it's not swapped.. and when we COULD get it out it SPARKED!!! ... so we thought there was no REASON to swap it!
