Hard to say without the threaded portion being cut away exposing the ceramic inner electrode cover, if its running well you'll see a brown ring around the electrode ceramic cover. Looking at the plugs as they are and not having run for long I'd say its possibly running a bit lean.

I find that the ceramic is very white, so very poor.
Are the spark plugs new ?
Was the carburetion stop done with an engine at operating temperature ?
Having driven at least 10 km ?

If you have removed the snorkels that's 2 sizes up then the engine work

I would say with airbox mods you need at least 260 main. But we are just guessing without more info
