Are all the plugs the same type?.. the number on the plugs all the same?

looks like you have the wrong plugs.

Maybe someone can verify the correct plug type.

Did ever think that maybe you've been doing it wrong all these years?

Neither plug in the picture has a washer. That can't be right.

Good point.

koloj:
if the plugs in your photo are from your bike then they look like the wrong type. You should be using B8ES. The plugs in your photo dont look anything like NGK B8ES
Your plugs shoud look like this



Like others have said - the only thing which will physically bend the tip of the plug is the piston banging into it.

I'm sticking with the washer or maybe someone cut the seat for the number two spark plug.

Here's how the plugs in the picture you provided compare to B8ES plugs (see image below). Notice they are not even remotely similar. Why not simply show us your plugs? Am I correct in assuming that you really are not looking for help? I ask because if you actually are looking for help you need to give us real information. Folks keep saying "huh" because your postings are so poorly worded and punctuated that it is very difficult to decipher what you are asking. Ed

take the plug out while the piston is at TDC and look in the hole with a light and look for ant damage to the top of piston. sounds like the piston is touching the plug
