Plugs and Pads

[diggerT]

I have a 93 Tiger and need new plugs and pads



I have been offered

Nissin, Armstrong or EBC pads (both sintered and organic)



and



NGK and Copper DPR8ea-9 and Iridium DPR8E1X_9 plugs



Can anyone tell me of their preferences as to the best combination?





Thanks a lot

Well, I'm on Carbonne Lorraine pads at the moment with good results AND Gedges stock them in St.Leonards on Sea.

I'm also using NGK Irridium plugs and they also appear to do a good job. Difficult to say if they're an improvement though.

Different bike, different brakes but on my Girly I've tried and binned Carbon Lorraine and EBC pads. The only thing that works for me is Nissin (OEM) pads. Not come across Armstrong pads myself but something rings a bell about them being a bit shit.

Think you must have got the wrong pad material because the Carbonne Lorraine pads in mine will stand the bike on its nose.
