    You will need to lift the tank and then remove the airbox to access the coil connections. Just unplug and then plug in the HM loom. Then fit the shifter and correct length rod.

    Allow a morning to do it, fairly straight forward though tbh.

    I followed a link on YouTube on how to fit spark plugs. If you watch it it will give you an idea of what's involved. As above pretty straightforward and just take your time.

    Take the side panels off if you have time as it makes it a lot easier to plug em in, but if you're feeling slack, you can just remove the plastic near the stem so that you can pull the intakes out of the way enough to get in.

    Trying to do it with the intakes fully in place is damn near impossible.

    It really isn't ... very simple and straight forward!

    Worse part is getting under number one ... I just forced the air duct up a bit and was then fine.

    Yes, but it's a bit fiddly if you've never done it.
    The alternative is to undo the bolts from the injector distribution assembly. Either way, be sure to wrap while it's apart to avoid contamination.

    Pull the rubber bit up then pinch the greeny turquoise bits together and wiggle the whole thing down. Fiddly little things and be careful not to break them.
