Understanding and choosing the right spark plugs

Can't seem to find out what I need. Clymer says the bike needs NGK B7ES, but our website at Z1 gives me B6ES plugs when I search for this particular bike. I read a bit about the higher the number the colder the plug, but this doesn't mean anything to me! Maybe it has to do with the temperatures I'll be riding in? Can you tell I don't know squat!

Any comments? I'm sure both will work just fine, I just need your opinions please, thanks!:dry:

What does your owners (have one?) manual say. Mine also says on sticker under seat. I'm using 7's. P.S. We like pictures, got any of your new baby?
