These bikes do need more spark though.This is evident by the fact that despite a relatively low CR, the plugs are spec'd for a real small gap. More power means you can run wider gap. Benefits I noticed:
1) Smoother idle
2) starts way, way better in the cold. I can often start it without a choke. When it is in the 20's, it still starts up well and easy.
3) No fouled plugs! Used to foul plugs all the time if I did short rides below 20 degrees. Haven't fouled in a long time. The last time I pulled my plugs, they looked real clean.
At the very least, I suggest you add a relay to your coils (cost around $10 and take about an hour), then open your plugs up a bit (maybe .9mm)
