You don't have to totally remove it, just loosen the mounting bolts and drop it downward to give you the room you need to work.

Its much easier if you hit it from the top end. You just need to take the airbox off. That way you can see where they are instead of feeling your way around if you hitting them from the sides.

have you ever changed plugs on a 600rr... you have to go from the bottom .. loosen the radior bolts and drop it out of the way. do not totally remove it and use the tool that honda gave you and it's a little bit of a pain in the *** compared to others that you can go from the top of the bike but it's not that hard.. takes about a hour ..

Yeah, no ****, you'll play hell removing ignition coils from the top. I wouldn't go that route.

I love the little tool bag. Crappy tools, but just about every size you need.
