Go to - your bike - Cylinder Head

Actually, the spark plugs on this model are easy to get to.

The right side plug is a little hidden behind the air box cover - look for the spark plug wire going to the head.

The left side will be a little hidden because of the gas tank - look for the plug wire going to the head.
