Tried as hard as I might, I ended up at LAB to get my plug wire. NGK lacing cable. I got another set for my buddy, only to find out the 2 sets are a bit different.

 

One is for the solid pole, SAE standard. Meaning the wire is suitable for spark plugs right out of the box.

 

The other is for the threaded terminal, meaning the "adaptor" on a new spark plug must be unscrewed before the wire can connect to it.

 

So, any idea which is better??? Previously my TZR125 uses the threaded terminal version, and I'm fine with it.....

 

Tell me which one I'm better off with, and why.

 

I can always go exchange with LAB tomorrow for the solid pole SAE standard for my fren which I think he prefer. Save time mah.

 

Oh, I bought it for $30 per set.....1 set is one wire.

Ok, I'm back after getting my plug cable DIY....seems like Wave are using plugs with the threaded terminal. Even my extra plug I keep as a spare do not have the "adaptor". Answered my above question.

 

I'll try out the "lacing" performance plug cable tomorrow.....

 

Avenue will be LAB to get the other set exchange, before he forgets my handsome face :lol:

 

Btw, those who DIY their own cables, I would like to ask if you guys cut the new cable to the exact length as the OEM one??? You know, as in to shorten the length so as not to get voltage drop. Probably the difference makes no significant difference, I dunno......Fyi, I did not shorten the new cable.

 

Thanks!!! :thumb:

personal opinion, shorten the OEM cable not the racing one, cos the core of the cable is different and is a better one than the OEM. :) BTW, how u connect the 2 core wire for the plug cable together? Did u twist the core together then tape up or just 2 core having contact together liao then tape up?

I twist and heat shrink over them.....guess I might re-do by using terminal lugs.

 

Can feel a bit different upslope. Not WOW!!! differences, but Hmmm okay... differences. Alright lah. Quite happy with it, with some extra power. Who is unhappy with more power be it only 1 horsie, right??? :cheeky:

Now the problem is u do not know which mod has helped ur pick up....

 

The changing of sprocket size or the plug cable.

PS : I do not know the original sprockets size, so if u change to the OEM size i'm very sorry.

MERGED THREAD

Topic : Wave R spark plug

Description : which want to use?

 

********************************************************************

 

original spark plug that came with bike is NGK CPR6EA 9 long reach).

after 1 service @ bikeshop, plug was changed to CHAMPION RG4HC which had a shorter reach. went to ask for another piece, was given another short reach NGK G-Power 3595 CR7HGP ($5 a pop!!)

 

say... any1 use any of the short reach plug here? and not have any problem with their bikes? :confused: or can recommend which particular plug to use :sweat:

 

am very sceptical abt bikeshops recommendations cause naturally they'll push the costliest parts to u, worst they'll sell u the oldest stock which they couldn't sell:cry:

 

pse pse advise:giddy:

I suggest u replace with manufacturers plug rec.

This way nothing is compromised.

 

If NGK it'll be CPR6EA-9 or CPR7EA-9

 

Or

 

Denso it'll be U20EPR9 or U22EPR9

For Denso Iridium Plugs part no is IU20

I weigh 70kg and yes, it helps but does not remove the slack in power. But grounding the bike helps!!! Mine is the EFI Wave, so maybe more effective. I DIY and tried the top. No increase in top speed, but the mid is better, as in throttle response, and it helps the upslope slack. Upslope is easier. Engine brake is not as harsh, thus making a more pleasant ride, not so jerky. Headlights are brighter....

When you guys change the plug wires, you guys

 

a) use the original length of the "lacing cable" be it longer or just nice.

 

or

 

b) make sure the length of the "lacing cable" is just nice or cut the excess to the exact length.

 

:confused:
