Check the gap when you get them.

If you look at the design of the synthetic cellulose it's far superior to most others.

Some HD branded products are great. Like the batteries for example. Of course I refused to buy an HD battery but I'll see how my experiment works out and report back.

I was going to order them on Amazon or J&P but Advance had them for $7.99.

I haven't ordered anything from J&P in several years. There are better vendors out there, IMHO.
I'm surprised Advanced had them.

ever since my bike was new I’ve been spending the long buck on red line synthetic for all three holes, no complaints , other than the price. I buy the “power pac” that comes complete with all three fluids. Just saying

I get it, but can't bring myself to buy HD plugs.

I haven't ordered anything on J&P in 4 years. I haven't done much to the Street Glide at all since I bought it. I've got grand plans for it though. Hopefully I'll get around to it soon. I like browsing the J&P catalog but I usually end up buying elsewhere. Depends on the overall cost. I'm stingy as all hell.

I was surprised Advance Auto Parts had the plugs too. $7.99 isn't bad.
By the way they seem to be gapped at .030
