Are these plugs all they are cracked up to be and how well do they work with this bike? I've heard some horror stories about these plugs taking out cylinders on older bikes. I have 97 gs500e if that makes a difference. I'm also jetting up lunchbox an exhaust

It's a spark plug at the end of the day. It's not going to make your bike any faster, I'd suggest just OE Ngk plugs

I can see the need for good plugs to help with cold starts. I ride year round and sometimes it can be a pain to start when it's really cold.

I live in northern Wisconsin. Way up by lake superior we just got a couple inches of snow haha. So good plugs are a must. Mornings and nights are a little cold

I think Adidasguy said E3 plugs make for easy cold (outdoor temp) starts, where he said Brisk plugs were harder to start in the cold than others -- I bought a pair on that statement since I tend to ride down to colder temps than most, but haven't gotten a chance to try them out since my bike's been sitting due to title issues  :technical:

The Buddha

Is this the plug that sticks in 1/4" deeper in the chamber ?
Cool.
Buddha.

Compared to NGK R that were in the bike they measure the same Buddha granted the E 3 were in a package. But I'm returning back to the NGK R no messing around.
