Which Sparkplugs?

Post by cross »

Hi Guys,

Is there recommended spark plug for these bikes?
Currently on the bike i have NGK R, DR8ES-L.
I know that there are different plugs, copper core, irridium, platinum, etc. and that some classic machines require specific type to work properly.
Which ones work best on '82 CBX?

Thanks
Sasha

DR8ES -L is the original plug for the Pro-Links, but you can go with the non-resistor D8ES -L. Hondas have always liked NGK plugs and the CBX is no exception.
