Kregerdoodle Posted June 30, 2012 Share #2 Posted June 30, 2012 I know nothing about a 1st gen, but there are no stupid questions, so do not hesitate to ask away. look through the site and maybe a member lives close to you, most folks on here are more then happy to get together and turn a wrench or two. Welcome to the site and we hope you will stick around. Kreg Hi all I would like to thank everyone for all their advise on how to change the plugs on my 85 royale. Unfortunaly i was unable to do it so it now sits in the bike shop. I've owned many motorcycles but never one that need a shop to change the plugs.. Again thanks to all for your help.

Hey, the only stupid question is the one you didn't ask just before you screwed up something! Now that being said, you may get some (good natured) smart a$$ answers!!! :rotf::rotf::rotf::rotf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trader Posted June 30, 2012 Share #4 Posted June 30, 2012 You just need a thin walled deep socket.....and maybe a wife with small hands! It's a learning experience for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongobobny Posted June 30, 2012 Share #5 Posted June 30, 2012 Yes, the stock tool in the tool pouch actually works very well, but I too use a thin walled socket and a u joint and a medium extension.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dano Posted June 30, 2012 Share #6 Posted June 30, 2012 And a swivel joint helps as well. Lowes used to have Kobalt tools, they had a thin-walled 18mm socket that works perfect...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobcat Posted July 2, 2012 Share #7 Posted July 2, 2012 Yep, a thinned walled socket, a swivel or U joint and a long extension w/ratchet... I can change my plugs in about 15 min Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
