yea, if your plug is giving you right average and bike is performing well and color of plug is also correct then why bother... but if it is not... then you sure need to replace it.
I notice each an every step the do while touching my bike and cross reference it to what people right on international forums to see what they done and what should have been done it makes me learn about my bike more and more ...
for removing faom only a screw driver is needed.
