I have had no end of problems with my triumph Daytona 675. It's an 09 plate. I had it serviced a few months back as it wouldnt start all of a sudden. Plugs were black. Its been on the road for 2 months and now the same problem again. Wont start, just ignition trying desperately. Battery fine.... How do I get to the plugs to change or even look at them? Thanks.

Getting to the plugs is easy enough, but you will need to remove some parts.
First remove the seat.
Then the tank has to come off.
- remove the two screws by the head stock
- lift up tank gently and disconnect fuel line (do not force it. squeeze the sides and it will release then pull firmly downward, disconnect the two electrical connectors, pull off the two rubber tubes)
- remove the bolt (8mm) where the tank meets the frame. (there is a sleeve inside you will need to push out once the bolt is removed)
Remove the air box cover.
Remove the throttle tubes (black horn shaped plastic. there are three)
-two screws on each.
Remove air box.
Now you will be able to see the spark plug wires which lead to a coil pack. One on each plug. Rotate the coil a little to loosen then and pull firmly straight up.
