[QUOTE="SpudRider, post: 1420372, member: 97525"]
I recently acquired a 98 KDX220, which is my first 2-stroke motorcycle.   After researching a bit I discovered two things about my bike.  :nod:

1)  I didn't receive a spark plug tool with my bike.
2)  If I get the proper tool, I should be able to remove the spark plug without removing the seat and fuel tank from my bike.

Therefore, I plan to order a Tusk Ratchet Spark Plug Wrench from Rocky Mountain ATV/MC.

After examining my bike, it appears I can remove the spark plug by reaching under the left radiator shroud, and pushing the radiator hose out of the way with my hand.  Even though I have small hands, it's [I]still [/I] a tight squeeze to gain access to remove, and install the spark plug boot.

I currently have a stock, green fuel tank, but I am considering purchasing a clear, 3.6-gallon, Clarke fuel tank.  Will installing an oversize, Clarke fuel tank make replacing the spark plug even more difficult?  If not, how does Clarke get the extra 0.7-gallon capacity with the oversize fuel tank?  Does anyone have a photograph of a KDX220 with the oversize, Clarke fuel tank installed?
