\"r\" spark plug

help with a question I should know the answer to....

my kz1000 calls for b8es plugs.
the gpz calls for r b8es plugs...


what is the R for??? if I do not use R plugs... then what? will it self destruct? melt the head?

If you don't use the "R" plugs, then your dog will get pregnant, your tires will spontaneously combust, your home will get sucked into the 5th dimension, and the motor will blow up. :evil:

In real life it may cause a little noise on an AM radio.

The "R" means "resistor"

wphew! as long as it does not make ME pregnant... hard to explain that one to the wife. okay.... so I am assuming that it will have no effect on the electronic ignition of the GPZ? my book said to use the non R plugs for the american models and R plugs for the Japenese. my bike was made in japan.... make a difference?:blink:

Use the "R" plugs or it will interfere with your Digital Dash, Fat lady pictures will be seen at 50-60 and Nekked fat Lady photos at 61-90.

Guess youll be doing 49-1/2 for theremainder of your life then huh?
:woohoo:

Resistor plugs fire at a longer duration and help with radio interfernce. Your bike came stock with resistor caps for the plugs there for you dont need to have resistor plugs. If you do have resistor plugs and resistor caps then you will have way too much resistance and probobly wont run to its full potential.
The more resistance the less amps.
