NGK CR8EIX Iridium IX Spark Plug (Stock No. 4218)
The NGK CR8EIX is a high-quality iridium spark plug for reliable ignition and long service life. It delivers a strong, stable spark, better cold starts, and steady performance under load. Iridium resists wear, so it keeps its gap longer than standard copper plugs.
This plug suits many modern motorcycles and powersports engines that use a 10 mm thread and 19 mm reach with a heat range of 8. Please use the vehicle lookup to confirm fitment, or check the Vehicle Fitment tab for full details.

In the words of the Vehicle Standards Agency (VCA), type approval provides "confirmation that production and samples of a design will meet specified performance standards".
For emissions components this encompasses noise, emissions and balanced back pressure, which have a strong influence on maintaining engine performance (power), and fuel efficiency. Type approval ensures that an aftermarket component will reach, or exceed the performance standard of the corresponding OE part.
Type-approval then, is a certain guarantee that an end user will receive a product of OE equivalent performance attributes.
Products on the Progressive Parts website that meet this approval will be clearly marked or labelled EC or ECE approved.
