I recently went to my local after market cycle shop and purchased 2 plugs for my bike. The plugs were NGK Racing plugs (R6918B-8) they cost $38.00 ea. after tax thats $83.24, Does this seem a little F****n excessive to anyone? You can buy an entire set of racing plugs for a car (8 of them) for $75.00, a plug for my lawn mower costs $2.35 I guess if I wanted to race my Mower it would be almost $40.00a plug. I searched online and found out that you can buy direct from the NGK dealer in Sun City Calf. The same plug that cost me $38.00 ea. i could buy for $ 21.00, that means that places like these cycle shops who purchase plugs by the box loads are probably paying less than $15.00 a plug and making $23.00 on everyone of them and that pisses me off!. So if you don’t mind buying online try http://www.ngk.com/ next time you need some plugs and save a whole **** load of money.
