If I had too much carbon build up wouldn’t my bike be sluggish?

On the subject of spark plugs.
Has anybody replaced the standard
NGK DPR7EA-9 plugs with E3.36?
If so, did you see any radical chance in performance or even mileage?
Just looking for some feedback before I grab the plug socket wrench.

Ok so what does the carbon build up do? if it’s not a sure thing in getting better gas mileage?
And that’s the only thing I have noticed, bike seems to be running strong.

Not saying it won't help, just can't be positive that's the only issue.

It may be down a couple of hp that may be hard to notice with just a butt dyno. When a lot of carbon builds up any motor starts to feel sluggish.

Dirty injectors can effect mileage too.

Why not just get one of these ? I used a spark plug cleaner back in the 70s when I worked at a Chevy dealer. My Honda 750 Four used to eat plugs so using a sandblast type cleaner every 1,500 miles allowed me to keep using the plugs longer.

Hey Steel, you said it could be dirty injectors is a bike the same as a car when you get the injector cleaner and poor it in the fuel?
Or is there a bike one? Or doesn’t matter?

It's the same cleaner. You just don't need as much since it's a smaller tank.
