My plugs looked in good shape with no crud on them and very clean but i bet they probably have never been changed before.

hi mate i would check with the supplier than the screw tops actually screw off as some in the uk have a soldered top

if its the guy on ebay
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AOR12LGS-Bris ... 53e929ad45" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; he sells the soldered capped versions

if you dont mind waiting 10 days from USA, this is the aor12lgs from the supplier i used for myself and funky and paul as they also needed screwed top to come off, this supplier has the standardv top that comes off, take no notice of the photo dont know why they show that photo non the ebay page, posting is reduced for two

Hi again, Thx for that info, i would have bought them from the guy on eBay, you've just saved me from a load of hassle
I'm not in any hurry to take the bike apart again just yet lol so I'll get them from that link you posted.
I plan to do all filters/oil/plugs/etc and can wait, that's not a problem, Cheers again.

These are the ones I got for my mk 2 Tmax last year.
Once I realised they were fixed on (I snapped half the thread off the first plug but it still works!)
For the second plug, I just drilled the tiny spot welds out and the cap unscrewed.
All good so far.

Hi pointburgman, yes it's a good idea to change them anyway. The Brisk plugs are brilliant. Some of the guys I know who bring their 400's to me for service have them and all speak very highly of them. I still don't have one in my 400 yet but it's going to happen soon. Let us all know what you experience once you have changed to Brisk.
