What spark plugs are the best to use in an 83. If it matters the YICS has been disabled.

Same here.

 

These are the stock plugs recommended for the bike.

 

They just work.

Might check out the following thread. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-27670.html

I used Autolites 4163s on the last change and haven't noticed any real difference. They do recommend buying them at an auto parts store rather than Walmart. Seem the second hand one seem to end up at discount stores more often...

You only pay $2 a piece for plugs??? I don't think a person can even get any spark plug here for $2. I believe the last ones I bought were over $6 each.

As a thought.......Next time you're in the U.S. you ought to buy a dozen NGK's or have a friend ship them to you....

Is there any advantage to using the iridium NGKs vs the standard NGKs
