Trying to get some orientation , I bought a set of FLASHING SPARK PLUG CAPS weeks ago, however checking with my technician he said that these goodies will not fit in my VALK . Do you guys know if somebody has added this caps to a Valk or how can I adapt them ?

Appreciate your support

What specifically did he say wouldn’t work?  If you are using these as a light show, they may not be easily seen, since the plugs are recessed.  You would also lose the dust cover seal, allowing water and gunk to collect around the plug.

Thanks Bobb
As you know spark plug cables for Valkyrie are too deep, I´m wondering if I can add these caps to the original spark plug cables

Bro, I'm hoping youre not contemplating cutting the plug wires. they rarely work as specified after that. I tried it when I was a kid, and even though that could have been the problem,I remember how bad it hurt.

there is a drain hole at the bottom of the recessed area. water will not collect. I have been running moroso wires for 8 yrs, no collection of anything that can't be blown out before plug removal.
