How to change plugs on a 2016 Vector

[JasonR]

I took a quick peak at the location of the plugs on this machine. Thanks a lot Yamaha!! Lol

Anyone give me an idea of how much has to come off to get at them?

Still having idle issues after first treating and then running all the old gas out. Have run about 180KM trail and another 40KM high speed lake so far so not a carbon buildup issue.

Want to eliminate plugs as the culprit before digging into the TORS rabbit hole.

i usually pull the head lamp/dash mounting bracket off of the frame when doing my oil changes/plug/battery changes on my apex.

Well that was the most absurdly complicated process to change a set of plugs that I have seen outside of Jag dealership!

But they are done. Good for another 16K

You take all the covers off a couple times it gets real easy. It really does! Well, it got easy to me. Don't have the 14 Vector LTX anymore and I can't say I don't like just lifting the hood on my 05 Vector.

Yup, take the worst engineers you can find, and get them to design vehicles!
They may look good, but they are designed to be financially good to the dealers!

What happened to open the entire hood in 4 seconds, and there is the battery, entire exhaust, carbs, entire engine, clutches, chaincase, and plugs!

WTF!!!
