[QUOTE="BigOgre, post: 1409058, member: 8712"] I just did this about two weeks ago. T20 or 25 I believe? Cheapest way to go might be [URL="https://www.sears.com/craftsman-6-pc-bit-set-torx-reg-security/p-00925702000P?plpSellerId=Sears&prdNo=3&blockNo=3&blockType=G3#"]this from Sears[/URL] although there's a whole bunch of other sets also. If the fairings are on you can remove a fastener or two and flex it out a tad. I was then able to place the torx bit onto the head and hold it in place by putting the tip of my finger between it and the frame. Holding it that way with one hand I used a 1/4" open end wrench in the other hand to turn it out. (I had some offset ignition wrenches which worked great here.) Same thing to reinstall. And credit to someone else here, for starting the torx on the install I cut about an inch of clear tubing and forced it over the head. With that I was able to turn it all the way snug by hand and once the values were set I just tightened it up using the finger and bit method again. EZ. Edit: Just realized, this was all on a Gen III. Hopefully it'll give you some ideas. [/QUOTE]
