in these temps nowadays, i'd say your safe at that jetting, prolly gonna be a size rich during the warmer months
look down inside with a flashlight, at the porcelein close to the base, you're looking for a cardboard colored "smoke ring"
edit.....that doesn't look like a 1 wide open, pulled the clutch and shut her down run ?
that appers to be used more than 1 run ?
or did you ride it back with that plug ?
that looks like alot of color for 1 run
this is a 1 wot run plug........

yes awk i put a new plug in started it up let it warm up and drove it down my street and turned around,then wot down to my house.(last house on road)pulled in clutch and shut it off and rolled it down my driveway..not sounding silly awk but the main jet should be in "tight"not in and backed out some right..sorry still learing
yes the jet should be screwed in tight, not he man tight, just snug
after warming the bike up and the ride down the street, allowed all your jetting ranges to add color to that plug, i spotted it immedietly,
you must warm up, and ride down the street with another plug, then put the new plug in and asap get to wide open and hold it there for a few seconds, pull clutch, kill motor, drift to a stop, pull that plug, re-install and ride home on the old plug.
the plug used for the plug chop must not be ridden on at all except for the 1 wide open run.
try that and let us know how it goes.
no sorry's needed, this is how we all learned
