Denso...W24ES-U
Debben sell 'em, so do sparkplugs.co.uk I think Jack (London Calling) was selling them last year, he may be worth a try.

PJ, they were listed as a Z1000 fitment on www.sparkplugs.co.uk :D
After seeing how well those old plug caps have done on ebay, there is a temptation to buy a bucket load of plugs and list them as some sort of NOS :roll:

I have had problems with Denso and NGK.
Seems to be a lottery if you get good one's or not.
I thinking about trying Champion, any ideas!
