If you remove the airbox it is easier to reach them but it is a lot of work to remove it.If you remove the radiator it is an easier procedure but you will have hard time to reach the spark plugs cause there is limited space to work in.

You need to remove the seat to access the bolts holding the tank down, turn off the fuel, remove the fuel lines from the bottom of the tank and any connectors, taking note of positions, then you will have easier access to the spark plugs.
Here is a link to the manual...info you need is on page 52.

There's the correct way which includes removing a whole heap of components, but I've found this way to be the best:

Note, this is for the faired version, so you should have even better access if you ride a naked.

Hey Gino... and Makis... I am 60 and pocket rockets are not my generation. I have seen your answers and you both know these bikes. Keep up the good work and take 'em all so I don't have to venture into the rocket science you two do. :-)

Best wishes, tombones49

How to replace 2008 hyundai veracruz spark plug

Hi Mathew:
I've never encountered an engine that required gasket maintenance as a result of changing spark plugs.
I'm not saying that it might need a gasket replacement, but it would not be because of changing the spark plugs.
