The important thing is to get the right temperature plug for your bike. The temp is determined by the number in the middle. 91s and 92s take an 8 (cr8ek). 93s take a 9 (higher number=cooler plug). I don’t have a clue what a 95 calls for. Beyond that, e.g. dual tip, single tip, iridium… it’s up to you. I always ran the cheaper single tips with no problem. Good luck.

I have the NGK Iridium IR9EIX plugs. I could get them cheap, anyone can these days. They have a very small electrode which is the best you can get because this is what a spark likes to jump to. Because of the material it will last longer than normal spark plugs and that saves me some time and work. After I installed them the bike ran a bit smoother and idle was smoother. The old plugs were not worn, rather new actually.
