After my previous problem ( see here http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=50080 )

I tried to start my bike. And it wouldn't go. It's turn over give a few revs then die.

Took out one plug and it looks carbon fouled (sooty black powder). Am I running too rich? if so, how do i change the mixture on the CBR250R.

Also, should I get new plugs? the ones in my bike I dare say are the ones that left the factory (the bike has only done 10,000kms now).

Cheers

Can you smell it running rich?

This is what the spark plugs should and shouldnt look like
