Hottest spark plug i can run in a sa50?

Post by jlynn433 »

I just recently started modding my bike with the removal of the variator restriction and drilling out of the 4 baffles in the exhaust :mrgreen: . i pulled the head off the engine and realized that i had a very weird piston wash. it is almost like a white/tan ashy look. i will solve that later. i just want to run a hotter plug in it till i get my polini corsa 72 big bore kit, so any advice is greatly appreciated, but just make sure u know what you're talking about lol

You do not want a hot plug, you want a cold plug or you will end up with a hole in you piston.

All you did was make it noisier and probably hurt performance by screwing up the factory designed system.

Spark plug recommendations.

1988 thru '93 BPR8HSA

After '93 BR8HSA

ok cool im running a BR6HSA plug in it right now. the bike is a 2000 Elite S with the AF16E motor. i know i prob messed stuff up with the muffler now that i look back on it, but in putting the polini corsa 72cc kit on in a short while with a new muffler so it cant do too much damage
