When my second Vision arrives I plan to go through it completely and one of the things I want to do is change the coolant and hoses and recondition the whole cooling system. Who makes original style hoses for the XZ? I've looked at a company called Samco and they have many obscure bikes listed but no XZs.

Also, what brand Iridium plugs are recommended? I see that Denso and NGK make them. What's the consensus on which is best

My iridium plugs are NGK and are excellent.
They are the first iridium plugs I've used so I can't compare.

fret not

Both NGK and Denso are good Japanese companies so most likely not a lot of difference between them.  They will meet technical specs.
Retired, on the downhill slide. . . . . . . . still feels like going uphill!
