Post subject:  Oh no, another spark plug thread

Bike (2006 XB12S) has had a set of Steaming Beagles in for the last few years, PN 32321-91, plug number EX12P. The local HD haberdashery doesn't have them any more, in fact they say they're discontinued. Anyway, I've come out with a set of standard HD plugs - PN 32335-04, plug number 10R21A. These are what were fitted when I bought it.

My question is, are they still the correct plugs :?: I've got recollections of plugs being superceded, but I suspect that's just for tubers.

On a secondary note, the current plugs are running fine, I just thought while it's in bits I may as well replace the plugs. Should I just leave the current set in :?:

EarlyTubers had their plugs upgraded to help prevent holed pistons and as far as i'm aware all later models were ok on the standard plugs they were supplied with.
As for changing them bare in mind a lot of cars now only have their plugs changed at around 36K ........even years ago most went 12K so i'd say if it's running ok leave it for now ;)

That's what I'm thinking, I'm a big believer in "if it ain't fucked, don't fix it" :P
