+1 and they are only like $4.79 shipped from Amazon or Ebay. You can get them in an assortment of colors though there aren't just offered in blue so you can match whatever you want doesn't have to be a AE match.

What's the consensus on OD 77T plugs? See a few places have good prices and I need to stock up. I know, P3...I'm just hesitant to make that switch due mostly to hearing that OS has a slightly different thread, so I'm really looking for a good plug that I won't have that problem. FWIW, I was using VooDoo plugs but my supply is all but depleted and don't think I can get them anymore

Thx

i used to run OD plugs with great results but the later batches (the ones that was cheap before discontinued) were hit and miss, some would last a gallon and some wouldnt last a tank. i went to OS/ninja/bullet from there, now going to start running picco/reds plugs. they have a stronger coil than OS. been running OS for a year now with no issues though.

ok i'm no noob here but after taking a REAL close look at my alpha carb, i noticed something that struck me as....odd...now i've delt with almost every style of carb, that i feel, has been produced in the past 20 years or so,(long/short/medium length needles, 1/2/3 needle, ect...) and to be honest i've NEVER seen what i'm seeing ....at full pull, the low end needle DOES NOT leave the carb body at all, not even seeing the taper...

now this isn't a complaint by any means because it tunes REAL easy and holds that tune like no other, just currious if this was a manufacture over-sight or.....????

can't say enough about the power of the alpha motors tho, LOVE'N IT!!!!
