Universal O2 Sensor

[1PairOfChoppers]

O2 sensor fouled on my 2000 150 Vmax OX66.

I'm wondering if anyone has looked into the NTK Universal O2 Sensor that splices onto the existing connectors. Some info here:

I found one with the same number and color of wires. This sensor looks almost identical to my original. Refer to this link:

I can't find the operating specs on the OEM NTK sensor or the universal version.

Anyone have any insight on the above or should I just bite the bullet and spend $280 for the Yamaha sensor?

The part Number most are getting is NTK # 21006. Napa autoparts here sell them for around $47.

Concensus is the aftermarket won't last long. I tried and it lasted less than 50 hours. Bite the bullet and buy the OEM. Mine lasted almost 600 hours with annual cleaning.
