Neil:
Make sure, once you remove the engine temp sensor, that you use compressed air to blow out the area. Small stones get in there and can tear up the sensor head if you screw into them.
If you haven't ordered the engine temp sensor socket from American Sport Bike (it's $20), you should. It has a slot built into it for the connector cable. Call Al or Joanne tomorrow, give them your Order #, then have them add that to your order.
Here's the link...

Another thing Neil:
When you get your order, use some channel locks or something similar, and break the back end off of the O2 sensor. This way, you can, then, easily get a 22mm or 7/8" socket on it for removal. |

Tried that, doesn't work.
There is no way you can get a socket on it, crow's foot 22mm yes, on there with the back end and cable in the way.
O2 sensors are a maintenance item. No big deal at $30.
