tbh mate it is doing this probably because you have put to much oil in it when to much oil goes into a bike it will come out black and wet thats what i think but also i could be you are workin it at a high speed so the spark plug will turn black!

hi mark, have you been driving your bike off road? coz it sounds like your problem could either be a blocked or dirty air filter which will need replacing or cleaning depending on which type it is. while you have the air filter out look into the carb, open & close the throttle to make sure the piston inside the carb is going up n down & not stuck open. finally check the choke mechanism is not sticking in which case you will need to take it out, clean it & make sure it opens & closes properly. try those things for starters & see if they work. hope that helps.........happy motoring.
