Guys, I seem to be having a nightmare. What size socket do I need to remove my spark plugs?

Needs to be a thin walled socket -I use a box spanner myself.

Thanks emken, I bought an 18mm deep socket and spent the afternoon exasperated as it didn't fit. The thin wall makes sense.....I love this f@#$ing bike!!!!!!!

I bought the 18 MM Mastercraft spark plug socket at Canadian Tire I think it was $9.  I figured I will have this bike for a long time to come, may as well.  Lifetime waranty on it makes it even better.

Gotta admit, I had my Girly for about three months all the time cursing the PO for having the toolkit away before I found it under the rear seat fob.  Well.... you don't turn it upside down often do you? :lol:

The seat fob that is...
