NGK 7415 spark plug for the 2006-2010 BMW R1200R motorcycle and other vehicles fires the spark that ignites the fuel and air in the cylinder. Like other NGK spark plugs in the Laser Platinum line, it is engineered for OE applications and suits engines that run OE fine wire platinum alloy plugs.
- Fine wire platinum alloy center electrode for longer wear and higher temperature resistance
- Multi-ground design with 2 ground electrodes pairs fine wire performance with fouling prevention
- 98% pure solid copper core for heat dissipation and conductivity
- Trivalent metal plating resists corrosion and seizing, which eases installation and removal
- Resistor type with 5000 ohm resistance
Quick facts
- Part: NGK 7415 spark plug
- Fits: 2006-2010 BMW R1200R motorcycle and other vehicles
- Material: ceramic insulator, copper core, platinum center electrode tip
- Condition: New
Hard starting, a rough idle or a misfire can mean a plug is worn or fouled. The same signs can also come from the coil, the fuel or the air supply, so with the engine off and cool, look at the old plug's electrodes and insulator for wear, deposits or a cracked ceramic, and check its gap.
Fits
It fits the 2006-2010 BMW R1200R, the 2003-2009 BMW R1200GS and the 2007-2009 BMW HP2 Megamoto motorcycles, along with many other BMW models. If your bike is not one of these, look up its year and model in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
