I have a Kawasaki ZZr600 and was wondering if anybody has used Iridium sparkplugs and uprated plugleads and if so is there any advantage to this. Also is there a tool to use for the shock absorber locking ring. |

hi dave, and . the only real advantage I know of for iridium plugs is longevity, v rated plugs (br8ev, etc) supposedly give better throttle response, and as for uprated leads id be looking at a stick coil conversion if its performance you are after.

only thing to say is irridium works well in a new engine but when they get dirty in an older engine seem to cause a lot of misfires |
