Bump. Still looking for input about the spark jumping from the plug body to ground.To my way of thinking the bike should not run if this is happening as the spark is shorting straight to earth ...



I don't think it's going straight to earth. Based on your earlier description, the spark is jumping the electrode gap first. It's pretty difficult to diagnose problems like this long distance, but I'd say there's every possiblity this isn't an electrical problem. The only way to know for sure is to put it on an engine analyzer that can inductively measure the HV current and timing.
