Oil-fouled (black and shiny), or carbon (flat black)? If oil, it could be a worn intake valve guide on that side. If carbon-fouled, I would suspect ignition since compression is OK. Swap the plugs and see if the problem follows the plug. Then swap the caps, or just install new ones. D6HA plugs are recommended and new NGK caps are cheap.

I replaced the coil, wires, caps etc. I have 2 part bikes. If this does not work, I will get new caps. Is there any way to install new wires at coil ??

Sorry, it is flat black. That is why I was thinking coil.
