Take off the gas tank and the air cleaner. You will see the 4 plug wires on top of the cylinders.

notstock is right with the plug location... as far as bondoing plastic, it could be done. but you would have to buy a special plastic bondo filler.... this type of bondo flexes with the plastic and doesn't shrink or become brittle..... i forget the name but when i get to work i'll post it....

ok cool... there are a few cracks on my side fairings i was wanting to fix... i just dont want to pay 150 bucks for a new side... i think im just gonna pull it into the garage, take all the fairings off.. sand them down, fix the cracks and repaint the whole bike a new color.. i dont know though.. i mean the bike has given me so many problems these last couple days i might as well call it a year and take the damn thing apart and get to work on it for next year...

as far as taking the gas tank off... is there a way to do this without dumping gas everywhere? can i just plug the tubes somehow or something?

i used to take my gas tank off my old katana to change the plugs... i don't see how it would be any different.... you shouldn't have any problem with spilling the gas....

Turn offf the fule shutt off and disconnect the fule line leading to the fule pump for the shut off. It,s easy bro just look at it and you will have no problem.
