front plug drain hole

Post by agentpineapple »

just want to check that this is the front sparkplug drain hole, the one that can get clogged up with road crap?
whats best to clean it out, wd40 with the red straw maybe, as I don't have an air line.

Shine a torch down the spark plug after removing the plug cap and you will see the light.... Praise Be! (goes off down the pub, singing, clapping and dancing in tongues.....)
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

found it, in case anyone wants to know, here's the drain hole for the front spark plug, make sure its not blocked, because if you ride in rain, it can get blocked and you'll end up on one cylinder.... :thumbdown:
