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.
