Dual Precious Metal Spark Plug for Kawasaki and Honda 4-Stroke Engines.
The NGK ILKAR7G9 is a laser iridium spark plug with a dual precious metal design — an iridium fine-wire centre electrode paired with a platinum ground electrode. Part number 97801, this combination delivers maximum durability and ignition performance, with the iridium tip providing a fine firing point for consistent spark initiation and the platinum ground electrode adding extra protection against gap erosion over the plug's service life.
The ILKAR7G9 is OEM-specified on many late-model Kawasaki and Honda 4-stroke engines, making it the correct replacement plug for engines that originally came equipped with this specification. Always verify fitment against your engine's owner's manual or NGK application guide before ordering.

Parts Desk Insights
The ILKAR7G9 is the right plug when your engine's manual specifies a laser iridium plug — the dual precious metal design (iridium + platinum) is a meaningful step up from a standard iridium-only plug in terms of gap erosion resistance. If your Kawasaki or Honda engine originally came with this plug, use the correct specification rather than substituting a standard copper or single-metal plug, as the OEM gap and heat range are calibrated for the engine's ignition system.
