I had that problem, so I went to a Motorcycle shop and bought an after-market NGK plug cap for a dirt bike application. It really holds on well and has a good rubber boot on it to seal out water from the plug.

| Yeah that looks like it would be pretty snug. Does it snap right onto the plug or is it the kind where you gotta unscrew that little nub on the top of the plug? |

I swapped mine for a ngk plug cap and it just snaps on the plug it was about £1.75 from halfords and they do them in the 45 and 90 degree angle another idea would be to get a skyteam st 50
<<<<
you can get to the plug whilst riding along if you have to lol |

Right! They do have angled ones, but the guy was out of them so I bought the straight one. I screwed up and forgot to put the rubber piece that seals the fan shroud on my new cap and I can't find the old one so I have an air leak. I don't think it's really matters, it just irks me that I can misplace something like that.
:hammer: :evil: |

I had to do that yesterday. :evil:
A GY6 plug is located almost directly above the exhaust header. It's totally unfeasable to remove the seat and center engine cover on the side of the road. So with a sock as my burn sleeve I had to reach up from the bottom and put it back that way and still burned the hell out of my hands! :evil:
Can the connector be pinched like a cars plug wire connector to fit more snugly? |
