Oh man, brain fart... I think it's cause the combustion chamber is too hot, caused by a lean setting. Don't quote me on that though.

white is lean. black is rich, and anything in between is good.

More than you ever wanted to know about spark plugs:

See the FAQ section. I would say you are running lean (hot), and that can mean engine damage! Have you done any mods, like a K&N or a pipe or something, that whould have changed your fuel/air mixture???
