Can anyone tell me where to find the damn spark plugs on my 02 6R?? I pulled one of the 4 round plastic pieces that look like they would be spark plug caps. There are 4 of them located under the air filter housing. It appears there is one in front of each cylynder and they are directly above each exhaust header.

The piece is apx. 4-5 inches long and looks like it connects to a spark plug. The problem is that would leave the plugs in a hole 4-5 inches deep that I can't even see into. I can't be sure what is actually down there.

How is a guy to check, clean, regap, or replace his plugs???

I don't have a shop manual but I went and looked at www.buykawasaki.com but they do not have a good diagram that shows the spark plug holes. What I think I could tell is that they are on the front of the engine. I have not taking mine out as of yet. Sorry couldn't be more help.



It's days like this I wish I still did drugs!

Yes...the spark plugs are buried ~4 inches down those holes. Kind of a [email protected]#tch to get to...at least thats how my old ZX-6E was.

You keep campaining for that ass-whooping you might get elected
