Default Use the right sparkplug wrench

I learned:

After removing my C50's seats, speedometer, and gas tank, I took out my rear sparkplug - using an ill-fitting (not)deep(enough)socket. Putting the new plug in, I managed to snap the new plug cleanly in two. I used the Suzuki tool bag sparkplug wrench to reinstall the old plug (I only bought two plugs...). I'll pick up another plug and do this again, except for the using the wrong wrench part.... Just use the Suzuki provided wrench - it works.

Yeah, I learned how fragile those guys are with my hamfisted ways years ago.
