   Looked in the FAQ for changing my spark plugs, do i need to remove the black bits from behind my rocker cover on a VTR, i'm ok with tools, just not with engines lol got mself a set of plugs the other day, just some cheap NGK ones to replace whatever has been in my car since i had it.

   yeah you have to remove the whole coil pack, which is behind the rocker cover. 2x10mm nuts on either side. then just pull it out.

   also theres a radio suppressor on one side be careful not to break it when undoing the coilpack
   
   also if you cant get to the plugs use a universal joint adaptor like this
