i just pulled the plugs. they are all black, sooty and dry. each is in the same condition.
the bike only smokes noticeably when i rev the engine while i'm stopped. if it also smokes while i'm riding i've not noticed.
so, where should i start looking? judging from the condition of the plugs, the engine is running rich, correct?

also, i have NGK B7ES plugs, which i believe are the Normal Heat Range plugs for this bike. i do have a aftermarket foam air filter, which i cleaned not too long ago (which involved removing the gunk and re-applying new oil to the filter. i think i did it correctly). this bike has gotten this type of mileage for as long as i've owned it...about 7 years (although i haven't really ridden it much for the past 5 years)
