What are signs or symptoms that spark plugs in a motorcycle need to be changed?

Aug 06, 2008 by JamU | Posted in Motorcycles

Will the motorcycle "chug" when at say 55 or 60 mile per hour? Could this be because of spark plugs, needing to be changed?

There are several things that could hint at bad plugs.

- Hard starting.
- Slight to severe hesitation when you give the bike some throttle.
- Stalling, especially when you give the throttle a good twist
- uneven idling
