What was he thinking

[FROG MAN]

Auto parts store. I said give me 4 NGK plugs for an 84 Venture. He said the book calls for an NGK 7EA. I said no the number has an 8 in it. He said here it is NGK 7EA for a 84 Yamaha venture 1200 engine. I said check the VMAX it takes the same plug? OK VMAX shows same thing NGK 7EA. My old plugs are NGK DPR8EA's. I'm going to take them back but just curious anybody running these 7EA plugs? They look identical in size

Gerald, I believe this is a one step cooler plug. If you are going to run the bike hard, this plug might even run a little better. If you are going to lug around, a hotter plug will probably perform better.

I usually run the Autolite 4164 in mine and it seems to do good and I can put a set in for about $6.

Book calls for DPR8EA-9 but the Autolites's work great. I've used them a lot.

I have always used the DPR8EA-9
