First real test.
200 mile day trip to Mt. Rainer last Sunday.
230 miles since fill up.
3.438 gallons.
66.9 mpg.
Pretty good mileage and I still need to do a valve adjustment and carb sync - been 2000 miles since last checked by the dealer (RMC out of business so I will do it myself now that Suzi's at about 7000 miles and out of warranty).

Just like to add my 94 gs500 starts  in about 1/10 of a sec..no choke...no throttle ,and idles until it's warm....every time.
My plugs are whatever came from the factory in 94 with almost 10,000 miles on them. We just bought it a few months ago rescued it from storage for the last 8 years.
This is my daughters bike,and she left for Army Basic training a week ago,and we never had the father daughter time for maintenance. We spent each free moment riding not repairing.

Seriously i have zero reason to lie about it...I am not here for the fan gathering unlike some others.
She has been gone for 5 days...IT has not been started for 5 days.
Granted it is 80* outside ,but it did just as it always does....no gas ...no choke...no problem. I'll have a video uploaded soon.
Terrible pathetic  phone video from an old razor ,but you can hear it and see it ..sorta.

Regular plugs are fine. Bikes can start fine. Just I find the Brisk plugs make my bikes perform better. Not arguing about anything, just my observations.
Think of going the other way. Bike wouldn't run as well with cheap crappy spark plugs. How many of us intentionally go out and buy crappy plugs because we feel they make no difference? Not many. But some see no need to go the other way for a better plug.  :cookoo: That logic eludes me.

"I won't go cheap because I know it won't work as well but I won't go better because I don't feel it makes any difference." WTF?  :cookoo:

Anyway - these have just been my observations. No need for videos to prove a point as there is no point to prove. Oh, wait - it is the internet so we do have to drive a point to the ends of the world for no apparent reason.  :icon_lol:

End of story. I found plugs that improve performance and I am happy with them.
If you're happy with what you have that is fine. There is nothing to show or prove.  :icon_rolleyes:

Funny coming from a guy that broke his mirror off and stuck it in the gravel,then set his bike down..then piled gravel on the back side of the mirror ,and then takes pictures of your front tire only skid to prove you fake crashed..... then begged to delete the thread.
Yea there is no need for that.

You're all wrong. You are clueless about the situation.

(Unless you have a warped sense of humor. )

I do not take lightly to being accused of damaging one of my beauties intentionally - even if joking.

aww
You know you set it down ..probably laid it down someplace else ,and decided to blame someone other than yourself..Which you can't do for a solo crash ..and you know your an idiot ,that's why you begged to delete your own thread. after you was proven a liar.
you're best to stop trying to talk to me like you're doing. I can easily repost your idiot pictures.

You have convinced me that this just may work.  I think that part of my problem was that I was a tad rich on the pilot...it's getting colder here in OH.  50* F in the morning.  Starts and runs right away like a dream in the morning. 80* cold start, not so much.  That tells me slightly rich.

I hear that these plugs turn typically leaner mitures into perfect ones.  Lesson learned...turn down pilot mixture screws, and install these plugs.

Don't get your panties in a bunch,every forum has a guy like this.Most forums just ignore him and when he doesn't get a rise out of people he moves on.Kinda like my 4 year old grandson that always says " NO " to everything,you stop asking him things and he can't say no and he stops!!.The people I know that act like this on the internet are total pussies in there real lives so this is there only way to act tough!!.

Wonder if they do a set for the f800? I'll have to get a set.
Some say that he submitted a $20000 expense claim for some gravel

And that if he'd write a letter of condolance he would at least spell your name right.

The child has ruined a few good threads.
The internet is a place where insecure people with self esteem issues can post whatever they want in an attempt to boots their ego. Similar to a kid throwing a temper tantrum. Wants attention. as long as we give it to him he feels important. They are not able to speak face to face. They wish to remain hidden and throw their pusillanimous comments all over the place.

So talk face to face and show who you are. Here's me:


What was a good discussion of Brisk performance plugs has now been destroyed. Best solution is to have the moderator ban him and delete the string of crap to get this back to something useful.

I don't think it is J_Walker under a new name. He was just stupid. More like jb848 - he was an @$$hole in the extreme.

Contact them at Magnum Tuning. Brisk makes all kinds of performance plugs.
A better plug can't hurt.
They're really nice. Helped me get a performance plug for my TS185. Thumper runs better now.

Just jumped on the Aussie site and no listing for the f800  :cry:

Email them with the plug you currently use. They will tell you what plugs they have that cross reference to it.
They did that for Thumper. TS-185 not in their list.

jestercinti

Does thumper foul plugs often?  Some 2 stokes do. I'm assuming you have auto lube. Auto lubrication has more consistent mixture than premix.

Would be interesting to see how they perform in a 2 stroke motor.

With everything on my 09 being stock 67 MPG is pretty normal for me. There are many factors that affect mileage and mine can vary from high 40's to a couple 72's. The low mileage is lot's of wind and low gear/high rpm while the high mileage is easy calm lazy riding. Regardless, when I do change the plugs I'll definitely try some Brisk plugs. My only question would be why the copper over the silver? Silver is the better conductor of electricity.
