I see in my new manual USA bikes call for non-resistor and other countries call for resistor. Whick is best? Does it hurt to run an R in the USA bikes? Barry A-7 A resistor spark plug reduces radio interference. They are more for vehicles that have radios or computers controlling the engine. An engine that runs on non-resistor plugs can also cause radio interference with nearby cars or other communication devices. On the new high performance outboard boat motors they have to run resistors because the non-r's will mess up the computer and shut down the motor or make it run like crap. A resistor plug is from about 10 cents to $1.00 more then a non-r plug. since you only have one plug on a KLR the extra $ won't hurt you. plus it MAY prevent problems with the electronic CDI. ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com
