there is an easier way. Ask me how I know.

For my bike I had to pull the gas tank, then the airbox, then the ignition system, then some crappy rubber flap, then a weird piece of plastic, almost half the body pannels, then a my mirrors because I have to get the windscreen support out of the way. And then I realised that I can skip a few other pieces and just use 3 universal joints to get to the plugs. Problem was that the socket wouldn't pull the plug out so I had to use a set of surgical clamps to reach in and pull it out. Thank god i didn't loose the socket or I would have had to pull the engine out.
