2006 1700. Freedom Performance true duals, K&N filter and aluminum intake. I have attached a pic of my spark plug. Looks to be running rich to me. The pilot jet is a 37.5 and main is a 170. I know from reading here that the pilot should be 40 and main should be 172.5. I do have to run with the enricher out for a bit to get the bike to run without hesitation or stalling. Could this be why my plugs look like they do. Should I change the pilot to the 40 and go from there or change both jets to start? any help with this is appreciated.

Using the choke for a couple minutes or miles is normal. What I meant was do not idle it prior to pulling the plugs. Just go for a nice ride maybe even up to 10 miles or so. When you get back home shut the bike off immediately without letting it idle, let it cool down and pull the plugs. You only need to pull the outside 2 plugs no real need to pull all 4.
