Have any of you guys tried the E3 Motorcycle plugs? Or an E3 plugs for that matter? If their improved horsepower and fuel economy claims are true then I'm gonna give em a go at my 8k service.
E3 spark plugs were shown to improve horsepower ratings (up to 12% in smaller displacement engines) when compared to conventional plugs of several leading manufacturer's.

E3 plugs have been proven to add horsepower and economy. But your talking in the gains of 1 to 5% which on a big V8 that would be a number worth the money on our bike. Well it doesnt make it look better. We already get 38 to 40 mpg and its only going to add maybe 1 to 2 hp. So not worth the money to me. not sure what the price difference is between those and some good NGK's. But that is just my opinion.
Looked on Amazon and they are about the same price as the NGK plugs so what they heck try them.
Let us know how it works out. I already have the NGK plugs for mine so I'll just use those this round.
I never did try the Diamond Fires. After talking with some folks the E3's just seemed like some slick marketing to me. I'm pushing 19k and the NGK's do just fine. Replaced them at 8k and again at 16k.
Skerlee. I knew in the past you didn't use a tuner on your set up, like mine I don't need it either. But I know recently you bought a tuner here on the forum. Just wanted to know. Did it make a difference?
I contacted e3 a while back and they told me they did not have a plug for the stryker yet. I have used these in a 94 newyorker I had could not tell a difference in power but I could in the fuel mileage. I would use them agin.
