They last a little longer than OEM and some have a magnetic stem to keep particles from recirculating. Brakes = Performance Machine are what I use, they don't overheat in active riding conditions like OEM. Plugs = Depends on the model you have. I ride an old IronHead and use GM sparkplugs, they just work right for my bike setup. Word of advice on plugs. Split-fire style plugs must be very carefully gapped so they are perfectly parallel or your spark will be offset with the end result being a lesser spark instead of better. I don't recommend them for Harley applications unless your bike is tricked out and needs a better spark. Of course then you would just use a better coil. The best thing you could do is find a local shop that works on bikes like yours so you will have a local parts source and some good wisdom as to how to get the most out your bike.
