VERY WRONG ABOUT THE PLUGS!!!
The IMR8C-9H are for a dirt bike or 250cc application.

NGK CR9EHI-9H or CR8EHIX-9H is the correct spark plugs for your application(CBR 929RR). The stock number is #6216.

The iridium's are worth the extra $$$$($1.13 per plug).
The factory tool works well because it is easy to get in and out. After you get the radiator dropped down, there will be wires that are plugged in on top of the coils. Remove them and REMEMBER which ones they were plugged into.(I wrote on mine in silver Sharpie 1,2,3,4). Once they are unplugged, remove the coils simply by pulling them. They are kind of tricky to get out of the tight space but for coils 1 and 4 angle them into the middle of bike(towards 2 and 3 or inboard). After the coils are out then drop down into the hole where the coils came from a spark plug socket. Then drop down a medium extension/spark plug tool from factory kit. Then attach a ratchet to the top of extension or in case of the factory tools there is a open end/close end wrench that will fit. Loosen the spark plug and remove the extension/spark plug socket piece by piece teh same way your dropped them in(this is where one of those telescoping magnetic tools comes in to play). Insert new spark plug slowly(either by the telescoping tool or by inserting into spark plug socket). **Strongly recommended not to just drop plug** I always try to turn the spark plug counter-clockwise (or loosening) so I don't crossthread it. After plug is in tighten(but not too tight). 1/4-1/2 turn past crush washer starting to seat. Repeat X4. Replace coils(you will have to kind of push down and should feel them "seat". It is okay if you can spin them around once fully seated) Replace coil wires. Replace radiator. I would recommend starting and seeing how it runs now instead of after replacing all fairings and so on incase soemthign is wrong. Hope this helps.
I will not be posting pictures. 74demon might since he has an unmounted engine. Sorry but it is 19 degrees out, my bike is stored outside under a cover and I am at work.

You need iridium plugs but if you think that there is only one plug per bike you are wrong. If you look carefully the plug you have listed also fits a dirt units. One plug can & does fit many units. It would be cost prohibitive to Honda to make one plug for each individual unit. That plug fits 2000-2001 CBR 929RR/RE, 2004-2009 CRF 250R & X models as well as 2002-2003 CBR 954. The plugs I listed are correct. I am sitting here looking at a factory Honda service fiche right in front of me & that plug is exactly what they have listed.
To the OP, go to your local dealer & ask for plugs for your application. Stay away from Champion & make sure to get the iridium's.

Don't buy your plugs from a motorcycle dealership. They will charge you WAY too much. I bought all 4, CR9EHIX-9H, from Advanced Auto for under $30. One at a Stealership will cost you $20. I give you good ways to save money with references.
