Short way home if only 3x. How did she run?Somehow, the road back from the shop was 3x as long as the ride there!
And, at least three times as fun.. . . . Somehow, the road back from the shop was 3x as long as the ride there! . . . .
Well, quit drooling on her.I wiped the seat dry coz is was cold and wet again
I bought the OEM part number off of "PartZilla"I will be installing plugs ! I recommend these plugs for your Tenere.
I suggest probably not taking a chance buying them off Ebay. Very good chance they are fake. Several post about this whole topic and plug !

Hopefully I got the correct ones (not sure how I would know?)
I plan to install them when I do the valve-check soon.
Miles?Pulled the cams, need to reshim 5 valves (exhaust were all tight- one of them "just", and one intake was a touch loose).
This is what is shown as OEM for my 2014.

This is what I received when I ordered them from Partzilla.

I think that with a platinum electrode (P) you only get what is left in stock. It is easier to get from Iridium (I ... IX) which is newer ...I will be installing plugs ! I recommend these plugs for your Tenere.

24500. Needed to change the thermostat due to disintegrating seal, so seeing as I was 90% of the way there, and 1500 miles away, may as well do them. Three of the exhaust were around 0.17, the other one not quite 0.22. I don't know how tight they can get before mayhem ensues, but it's not something I care to explore.Miles?

Had an NGK Iridium just plain fail on my VStrom. Misfired intermittently, then totally crapped out with about 20,000 miles on it. I'm sure that is the exception and not the norm. Just remember they can all fail. I wonder if the premium price is actually worth it?I think that with a platinum electrode (P) you only get what is left in stock.

The price is relatedwonder if the premium price is actually worth it?
Total for the day turned out to be a 380 km round trip anyway. The benefit of living far from "civilisation".Short way home if only 3x. How did she run?
