  2. If the recesses are anything like the 999 then you will need a modified Sparkplug socket. This requires the outer diameter at the bottom 1/2", or so, of the socket to be reduced by grinding or turning on a laithe.

  7. I managed to do it relatively easy on my 848 using the spark plug tool in the standard tool kit supplied with the bike.
    the front plug was bit of a pain to get the coil to come past the radiator but other than that it's relatively simple once you've got the tank raised a bit.
