So I was doing my 10,000 mile service today and my plug wires looked a little rough. So I called the local dealership and they told me "Oh those are obsolete you need to call American SportBike and get them from them."

I'm like you have got to be kidding me. I mean I order lots of stuff from Al but you would think the local dealership would have plug wires.

Just my day.

Hey, the guy didn't lie to you.

Awesome ! can we just take the old wires off and chuck'em ? Or do we need to buy new wireless plugs to get the most out of the new system ?

Call the dealer back and ask them that.

Good, more business for Al at American Sport Bike. I wonder if the owner of the dealership knows that his parts dept. is referring business to a competitor?
