CBR 600 1995 RS F3

Anyone?

I have the tank off and i am pulling out the freaking whole 4 barrel
housing just to get to my plugs.

Please tell me i am wrong but i couldnt seem to get to it from the front due to the chasis and of course the radiator......

Actually tell me i am right and it is a big pain in the *** because i am already half way there.[:-]

 

are you using the spark plug tool that came with the bike? if not you need it....and the first time you do it is a pain in the ***, and it doesnt seem to get any easier either....

 

If you don't have the spark plug tool from Honda, then the easiest way to remove the plugs is this:

Remove Tank
Remove Airbox

You then need to use a 5/8" spark plug socket with a 4" extension then a swivel socket adapter and another 4" extension. This will loosen the plugs so what you do when they're loose, is to remove the socket wrench, remove the 4" extension, remove the swivel adapter, and you can then pull up the 4" extension with the 5/8" socket with the plug.........

Kind of a pain, but does the job

This is how I did it......

 

I just took the valve cover off and used a 5/8 plug socket and 3" extension on a 3/8 in ratchet. Just a little more time but I don't have the tool. Also a good time to check everything out and clean your cover. It's not hard, even all the hoses fall back into place.
