BEST SPARK PLUG FOR THE HAWK

Yeah... or the dashboard, as that is about all the electronics on your bike... Interference in ignitions are rather nasty in nature... They like electonic motors don't play nice with other electronics... Most likely not going to damage anything... but it will make them go bonkers...

Yeah, or mess up the radio in the cage you're riding next to. And as he/she tries to figure out what's wrong then said cage is now unintentionally in your lane. Leave the resistors alone guys, for safety's sake at least.

Funny I was watching Spike this weekend, and one of the hotrod shows did a segment on Pulstars (sp).. in a C5 'vette. Got like 6-7 hp out of em. $25 x 8 / 6hp = worth it? The 'vette was bone stock.
YOu guys tell me. Does 6hp make THAT much difference?

Not on a Vette. On the Superhawk, yeah you could feel it. But there's no way you'll get that much out of it on the VTR. Figure it this way. 6hp / 8cylinders = 0.75hp per cylinder. That's a whoppin' 1.5 hp for us!

I thought I saw a reference to HRC ignition boxes for the SH, but can't find any links now.
Neither provided more/better spark, just a remaped spark timing curve.
If you want the truth/lowdown on how to improve your igntion system, give this a read

Good wires, and good plugs should be all you need for a mostly stock motor. Only if you go crazy with the modifications will you need and aftermarket ignition coil.

During 34 years of teaching Vocational Automotives, I told my students..."If any plug other than OEM increased performance or gas mileage, don't you think the vehicle manufacturers would use it?" Performance sells.
