Holy crap is right!! Jesus man, 6 is like a lawnmower, get an 8 in there!!! a 9 if you'll be doing long dual carraigeway / motorway miles!!
No wonder its got an over run!!!

when you take the 6 out check for silver deposits on the plug,if any then check the piston (shine a torch down plug hole and a small inspection mirror) to see if its nearly got a hole in it

I run mine with a 9, and even just round town work it never fouls or plays up.
I just figured that I would run the coldest plug that was still reliable.

heavy is good, heavy is reliable, and if it does fail, hit them with it!!!

As all of the above responses........ 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Throw that straight in the bin! You should be looking 8 or 9 around town/general use, with a 9 for motorways.

Clearly I read some dud info to which I'm not very happy or impressed about, thankfully stopped before any or too much damage has been done, will whip the head off tomorrow just to reassure myself, throw all the plugs I have in the bin & get some 9's & put in a bigger main.
