There isn't one, red caps are aftermarket OE they were black.

If you want red just look for the NGK equivalent in red.

I've had a look about and all the reasonably priced ones (under £3 each) are out of stock everywhere. Then the price jumps to £7+ (starting with Ebay).
Can always ask about their next stock date obviously though.

Ebay, https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/155153533208?

Wemoto have 4 left in black, if anyone is interested. https://www.wemoto.com/search?search=Spark+Plug+Cap+NGK+SD05F+Straight+For+10%2F12mm+Plug++Black&search_click=1&toshow=

And buying from abroad is not so bad at all, this lot in Holland have really helped me out in the past being the only place having what i needed and they do comprehend the need for a quick postal delivery too. Worth keeping the address for future reference. https://www.cmsnl.com/yamaha-fzs600_model35432/

Worth a look too. There are some different angled alternatives to look out for, with similar codes, mainly with 05F in them (with added -R for red), but this explains the differences, and i can't see any reason why they shouldn't do the job too.


For the record, in the UK NGK are now known as NTK, not sure how that effects things but may be why they were discontinued.
