    So I need to purchase some new plugs for my bike, unfortunately the shop I went to sold me the wrong plugs and don't have the proper ones in stock, AND claim they don't do orders for less than $50. So I was wondering if

    A: One of you fine gentlemen or ladies might know of a good online retailer.

    and

    B: Which brand of spark plug/model number do you use?

    Thanks for your time.

    I have NGK D8EA in my '82 550. Seems to work nicely, and they're readily available at most parts stores.

    NGK D8EA. Widely available; usually only about $1-$2 each at AutoZone or the like.
