    CRF300 Rally thread

    I see they spec a Laser-Iridium Sparkplug. Should last 50 000km, easy... but I would take it out, check and put back at the 12000km interval, just to make sure it doesn't seize in the head.

It has also put me on a wrong track, just to tell me to turn around and follow the right track.. Mostly here at the Southern Great Karoo/Aberdeen Flats..
