Does anyone know if I can use the Dragon spark plug wires on my 2008 Nevada?
 
Bobcat, I don't see why you couldn't fit aftermarket wires. I haven't gotten into the wire set up on my V7C so I don't know how unique the setup and connectors are.

In addition to the wires, are you changing anything else? I.e. a high performance coil or other ignition system parts?

Guzzis run best with wire core leads to the spark plugs. That is why they are fitted with 5K ohm caps. Carbon core wires can be a problem. The Dragon wires web site states they are very low resistance. These wires may result in RFI that may impact sensor or ECU function. Do you have a problem with your stock leads?
 
No problems with the current set up on the bike. Was reading all the accolades about Dragon wires and wondering if they would work for my bike. I just got it back last Saturday after being in the shop for 5 weeks. It had an oil leak from the right head bolt. Turned out they had to replace the entire right cylinder head. Although the bike was officially out of warranty, by 4 weeks, Guzzi covered the parts but we still had to pay for labor.

I'm just glad to have him back and was curious about performance upgrades.
