I like the logo coming up from the rising sun, and the simple box graphic. American company? I thought they were Japanese. Website says their corporate headquarters is in the states.

The Clymer manual calls for NGK D7ES plugs, but NGK doesn’t make that model anymore. Luckily we can use the NGK D7EA. I picked up four from Old Bike Barn.

Old Bike Barn also sells the Honda OEM Oil Filter. I’m going to change the oil the same day I replace the air filters and screw in the new plugs. Can’t wait to get my hands dirty.
