as you know i installed a HP airfilter ..

i just wanted to ask .. is my bike running in a lean mix ?
check the pics ..

IMO your A/F mixture is just fine. The colour is gray, not white. The brown colour being spoken of AFAIK refers to two stroke bikes.

Here's a good spark plug guide.

Also, if you have a CV carb on your RTR, then loosening the air screw makes the mixture richer and tightening it makes it leaner.

If you want to experiment, find the air screw on your bike and carefully tighten the screw, taking care to count the exact number of turns it takes to tighten it fully. Then, try riding with a setting within a half-turn of the original setting, both lean and rich, while checking for changes in the plug colour.

dude the said brown colour is not particularly related to two stroke engine....
it always shows sign of good "setting" in 4 strokes and 2 strokes both...

in two strokes what u get it blackish colour tht too little wet if the "setting" is wrong or in case of the gasket blown...otherwise shows tht brown or light brown colour....

and when TVS provided RTR with choice of TWO carbs

as you mentioned here "IF"...

it always came with a CV carb....
