I have the best luck with HD brand plugs. They just seem to work the best for some reason.

There's really no advantage to the multi electrode plugs over the regular plugs. Once the mixture is lit off it's all over then.

I always used HD bike has almost 50k never had any problems never saw any reason to change but I only put around 5k on a set I think the manualsays change every 5k

I have alway gotten best performance from stock HD plugs, have tried S/E plugs but seem no better then stock, no increase in hp or torque, just drain my pockets quicker although I do use them when I install S/E heads that call for it because of higher compression. I think Champion makes them for Harley but I will not use Champion plugs, but Harley's are #1 in my book, go figure.

Champion does make H D plugs to H D specs. Unless you have a high compression motor and a after market high out put ignition save your money and use H D plugs Jmo Jack
