Yep O'Reillys have them in larger cities, it only took a day to get them sent to my local O'Reillys from Houston. $15 for two though. I can buy 4 plugs for my Bandit 1200 for less than $6 at Wally World!

You'll pay $25 each at a dealer. Head to schucks or napa and make sure they are iridium.

I guarantee those are not iridiums. Iridiums don't usually go cheaper than $7 per.

Oh yeah and don't forget to gap them.

Running the NGK iridiums here. Previous plugs were Champion Platinums. As ridiculous as it is, I got a huge driveability and power change from the NGK's. The champs weren't fouled, but they were definitely pieces of garbage. Idle smoothed out, starts with less choke, makes more power everywhere. I wouldn't go back.

I live in FL and the only place I could find the plugs was the local Cyclegear shop...had the plugs ordered in from South Carolina for $11 a pop plus tax.
