Default Suzuki lt50 too hot ??

Hi everyone

I pulled the oil pump off and started mixing the quad at 32:1, the bike runs spot on no problems as far as I'm concerned but when i went to check the plug it's very very hot like not touchable hot, I understand it should get hit obviously but that hot I can't touch it?

When I disconnected the oil bottle I removed the top jet also
Any ideas please

Spark plugs get very very hot.
I don't think there is anything wrong.

I really do think there's something not quite right, I cleaned the spark plug good,rode it for no more than 5 mins, checked the plug and it was black not with oil but almost burnt looking with a hint of blue to it and the plug was untouchable due to the heat I just don't want to damage anything any help at all would be great

If your plug was white, there would be a lean condition which is bad.
It's black which means it's rich which is a good thing (compared to lean).
IMO, you cannot touch any spark plug after running 5 minutes.

The BPR4HS plug will be fine.
