Spark plugs loose? Yes
After reading numerous posts about spark plugs that weren’t tight from the factory, I decided to pull the tank and check. Sure enough the two up top were only finger tight. They could be removed without any torque.

no $h!t..stupid, they'd sell twice as many spark plugs too if they made it more DIY friendly

Yep, 4 bolts, a quick connect fuel line, a couple electrical plugs, and a vent tube or two shoves it way past the comfort zone of many. That is some major advanced maintenance there now. Kinda like putting brakes on your car.
Ohh, all 4 of my plugs were tight.

Mine were loose on 2018 FLTRU... I'm pretty sure this is assembly problem at the factory, because after I installed new plugs and torqued to spec, they have stayed nice and snug ever since.
I don't have a complaint about needing to remove the tank to access the two inner plugs. I tend to replace my plugs every 10-15k anyways. 30k does seem like a very long time.
