Does the spark plug seems ok?

Does the spark plug seems ok? Does it seem overheated? Or burned? The spark plug have only 7000km.

It says to me bike is not ridden hard enough and Never Seize was not used on the threads. Check gap and re-use.

Or, on your $6000 scooter - pop a new one in for $7.
Per NGK:
"NGK sparkplugs have a trivalent plating. The finish on the threads is designed to provide corrosion resistance and also acts as a release agent during spark plug removal. NGK spark plugs are installed at the factory dry, without the use of anti-seize.
Anti-seize alters the torques values up to 20% and can lead to over-tightening a spark plug."

I dont need new one . I only want to know if my engine works fine .

If gapped correctly - not cracked, should work fine. My point is, while it is out, why not spin in a new one and you'll not have to look at it again for 10's of thousands of miles?

Because i can use few more km with this spark plug and also i dont have new one. But my point is to know if my engine runs good because i thought mu spark plug overheat because his had a black colour

[Stig / Major Tom]

No sir.
Please research some photos of spark plugs...and what the various colors & conditions can tell you.
This will save you from seeing trouble where none exists.
Light color plug tips tell one thing. Dark tell another.
You'll find it interesting.

I’ve had a look at your spark plug and to my mind the color at your plug is perfectly fine.

You need to have a look at the color on the center and ground electrode - which is grey / whitish at your plug. Perfectly fine.

The black part at the bottom end of your plug is quite normal as well- no reason to worry about. The black color just came from burnt fuel gasses which builds up by time.

The only “problem” I could see - the center electrode seem to be slightly “rounded” - which is an indication of slight wear.
If you just check and re-set the electrode gap again, I think the spark plug should be perfectly fine for quite a while.
