For the 10K I'm tempted to get the Buell performance plugs. Plugs link

Was wondering if anyone's used these and how well they work?

I just recently installed the Buell pro series plugs and noticed a big difference right away. Of course I did have 5k on the stock plugs.

How hard is it to change plugs in an XB 12R?

I have run the Pro Series since about 7000 miles and the bike ran noticably better than the stockers and has since then.

I don't find it too hard to change them...it just takes a while since they can be a little hard to get to...especially the back one. I feel a lot of stuff has to be taken off to access the plugs and wires but that is just me I guess.

1 hour should be about right to complete the job after you have done it a few times. If you don't have the angled plug wires it may be a good idea to have one or two extras just in case something needs to be changed out while you are in there.
