Model: Bmw R1200gs
Part: Spark plugs

In this tutorial, you will learn how to remove and replace the spark plugs in the engine of a BMW R1200 GS by following these simple steps. First, place your bike on the centre stand and start by removing the frame protection bar, unscrewing the screws found at the anchorage. Next, remove the spark plug cap to disconnect the connector. At this point, use a socket wrench to unscrew and remove the spark plug, replacing it with a new one (ensuring it has the correct heat rating); now, hand-tighten it before securing it with the wrench!
