Time for my 10k service and I am looking for some NGK CR8EKB spark plugs. They aren't even specified on the NGK Australia/NZ website. CR8EK are available and Iridium CR8EIX. What does the B suffix stand for?

I think the B means the terminal top is a fixed terminal instead of a screw terminal that you can screw an adapter on to.
I believe the CR8EKB is the same plug my Aprilia RXV uses. I just got some CR8EK plugs for it and have to use the threaded adapter to make them work unless I change the caps top the ones that fit the threaded posts.
 
Discovered that Darbi import them in NZ. Most bike shops don't list them but can order them.

You'll save a helluva lot of money if you import them yourself. Try google or amazon.com to compare prices.

You might want to be sitting down.

Have sourced both the CR8EK and the PMR8B (platinum electrodes - expensive) off the shelf at Red Baron.

Also confirm the B of the CR8EK refers to the connector type - B = fixed non removable - No B = Threaded connector, otherwise no difference

Yes Dave. Price varied from $16 to $35 each. I can live with $16 (NZ$) but may import my next batch.
Hope you are well?
