Here's a proper beginners question for you.

How the hell do I get to the spark plugs on my bike? I've had a look at the Haynes, which conveniently forgets to tell me where they are and how to get at them. I've taken off the LHS fairing, but I don't know where they are!

Cheers

Tank off and follow the HT leads Wink

They're buried in the cylinder head so you'll need the box spanner from the tool kit or a decent spark plug socket and extemsion bar

I don't have those tools anyway. Laughing I did get the tank off, checked out the filters (all crystal clear) gave it a once over on the panels, then slapped it all back together. Battery ran flat, but now it has an electrical problem I'll make another post about. Mad
