SV650K7/SK7/AK7/SAK7 (’07-MODEL) 15
SPARK PLUG GAP
• Measure the plug gap with a thickness gauge. If out of specifi-
cation, adjust it to the following gap.
$ Spark plug gap
A
Standard: 0.7 – 0.8 mm (0.028 – 0.031 in)
" 09900-20803: Thickness gauge
ELECTRODES CONDITION
• Check to see the worn or burnt condition of the electrodes. If it
is extremely worn or burnt, replace the plug. And also replace
the plug if it has a broken insulator, damaged thread.

SPARK PLUG AND PLUG CAP INSTALLATION
%
• Install the spark plugs to the cylinder heads by finger tight,
and then tighten them to the specified torque.
& Spark plug: 11 N·m (1.1 kgf-m, 8.0 lb-ft)
NOTE:
When fitting the spark plug caps, front and rear of cylinder head
cover side, face the triangle mark
A on the water-proof cover to
each cylinder exhaust side.
THROTTLE VALVE SYNCHRONIZATION
Inspect the throttle valve synchronization periodically. (#Page 62)
Confirm the thread size and reach when replacing the
plug. If the reach is too short, carbon will be deposited
on the screw portion of the plug hole and engine dam-
age may result.
Before using a spark plug wrench, carefully turn the
spark plug by finger into the threads of the cylinder
head to prevent damage the aluminum threads.
Inspect initially at 1 000 km (600 miles, 2 months) (E-33
only) and every 12 000 km (7 500 miles, 24 months).
