Note: I don't know what spark plug indexing means, I'm just trying to keep the spirit of the thread.

Yooz guys are cruel.

I used to index my plugs on my drag bike. I had this huge set of various thickness copper washers and would spend lots of time making sure the ground electrode was oriented just perfect. After countless hours of fiddling with that I finally figured out it made no measurable difference in performance. It wasn't so much the money but the wasted time. I could have utilized that time to do something more constructive.

Knowledge is power.

Better off spending your time riding to go get a top quality spark plug and properly gapping and installing it. There are only so many things we can do to pull more performance from these engines and spark plug indexing isn't one of them !
