maybe not.....
EDIT:
found out its 18mm
They're 18mm . Sodding oddball things. You'll need an 18mm long reach socket - or a proper 18mm plug socket IF you can find one at a sensible price.

Ta for the info! Got the same model meself, but haven't bothered to change the plugs, yet. It still starts and runs fine so I guess I'll change them when it doesn't... Lazy, I know, but then Colemans is pretty good with their rates for servicing, so I may give it a present sometime. It's only done 39k. How do you like yours? Anyone else with these older Gixxers?
You don't get to be an old dog without learning a few tricks.
Shorai Powersports batteries are very trick!
