Same as manual.Dont forget Loctite and position the tabs correctly.If not removing crankplate just do one bolt at a time remove stock bolt,clean threads,clean new bolt,loctite,put bolt in,torque bolt(22-25Nm?),put tab on bolt up against something to prevent left rotation(tab can be cut or bent to accomplish this)put snapring on bolt.Recheck your work.

25Nm is what I go to using my Torque wrench which has not been calibrated for years but I assume is correct.22Nm is factory final torque.Never felt like enough to me but that is just my opinion.To find ft lbs just Nm divided by 1.356 =ft lbs.

cr8ek or a 9 I think is the plug.Cant remember since havent bought one for two years.Battery ground is at the fuel regulator mount.Make sure you get it between frame and metal spacer.And clean it up good then Loctite.
