Overview

NGK 95397 is a Laser Iridium high ignitability spark plug built to match original equipment standards for specific Honda applications. It uses an iridium center electrode, a copper core, and a square platinum ground electrode design to support consistent ignition performance.

Fits 2016-2017 Honda VFR1200X, N/A. Fits 2016-2017 Honda VFR1200X DCT, N/A. This part cross-references Honda 31912-MGH-641 for the same application.

Key Features

  • Laser Iridium construction for precise spark delivery.
  • High ignitability ground electrode design for efficient combustion.
  • Pre-gapped to 0.036 inch for the listed applications.
  • 5/8 hex, 10 mm thread diameter, and 0.75 inch reach.
  • Flat seat design with stud terminal connection.

Detailed Description

NGK 95397, also identified as IMR8E-9HES, is engineered as an OE-style spark plug for the Honda VFR1200X and Honda VFR1200X DCT. The plug combines an iridium center electrode tip with a nickel ground electrode core and a square platinum high ignitability ground tip to support stable spark formation and reliable combustion. Its 5000 ohm resistance and 0.036 inch pre-gap align with the listed factory applications.

NGK’s OE manufacturing background and long-standing ignition focus are reflected in this spark plug’s original-equipment standards and application coverage. For buyers searching for a Honda VFR1200X spark plug or Honda VFR1200X DCT spark plug, NGK 95397 provides a direct replacement reference for the specified fitments.

What It Helps Address

  • Misfires caused by worn or eroded spark plug electrodes.
  • Hard starting from weakened ignition output.
  • Rough idle related to inconsistent spark delivery.
  • Reduced combustion efficiency from incorrect plug gap or heat range.
  • Loss of throttle response tied to degraded spark plug performance.

Installation Notes

Verify the part number, thread diameter, reach, seat type, and pre-gap before installation. Use the listed fitment notes for the Honda VFR1200X and Honda VFR1200X DCT, and confirm the engine application matches the vehicle’s service information. Replace plugs according to the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule and inspect the ignition system if symptoms persist.

Quality Assurance

NGK is a major OE spark plug supplier in North America and manufactures ignition components to original equipment standards. Part number 95397 is supported by NGK’s OE legacy and application-specific engineering for the listed Honda models.
