NGK CR9E family of plugs. cr9eh9 is the stock recommended. The plugs come pre-gapped.

Motorcycles aren't cheap. Use quality parts. Use good plugs (ie ngk), use good oil (ie motul 5100, repsol, amsoil.), use good filters.

People will spend $800 on an exhaust system without blinking, but $36 for spark plugs is too much.
