Is there some kind of special tool used to change the sparks plugs? I've tried the standard 5/8 socket tool, and 16-18mm deep sockets, but for some reason I can't get any thing seated to the plug. ANY SUGGESTIONS?

Your tool punch that came with the bike under the seat, should have the correct socket ~

I could give you a link, but since you didn't bother to say what year it is I won't
The plug OD is different.

Nope, 18mm doesn't seem work either. Also, these plugs were in when I got the bike - so I don't have a clue as to if the plugs are the correct type for this bike.Comment

Thanks kevin250200. I did not know that one existed. I did find one at Pit Posse(http://www.pitposse.com/18spplso.html) and another one at Sears for a third of the cost. I'll try the Sears product first. Thanks again for the straight forward help. I'll let you know how it turns out.

advance auto parts had one that fit. (18mm)Never be afraid of DIY. Remember, amateurs built the ark, and professionals built the Titanic.Comment

I couldn't find a thin-walled deep socket locally so I just used a bench grinder to slim down a regular socket.sigpic

Thanks to all you guys that responded. I got the socket from Sears for around $5, and it did the job. Thanks again.Comment

No toolkit under the seat, back by the brake light?
PM me if you need to buy a toolkit for the bike (I carry the OEM ones brand new).
Glad to see you got it out
