    Hey guys! I feel stupid even posting this thread but I've searched high and low for this simple answer and cant seem to find it. What is the hex size for the spark plugs on this sucker? It seemed the standard size sockets were either too big to fit into the channel or the nut wasn't catching. I think my next purchase will be the xj750 manual but if anyone knows the answer it would be a huge help!

    Thanks

    If you’re talking about an X, you need to have a THIN-WALL socket to fit down in the well
