Gray is not good for a spark plug color in a 2 stroke. You want a nice chocolate brown(milk chocolate). Grey usually means aluminum transfer(detonation).

my plug was black so i messed with the screw and rode it and it started to whiten up some so i got it too lean now right?? it needs to be somewhere between black and a whiter tint not all the exahust was rings but some where it was funny

My 250r occansionally does the same thing. But i think I have the fuel ratio a little high on the carb. I have also seen a Blaster blow the same smoke rings.

mine blows smoke rings too, i thought it was cool so i figured out how to make it do that...hit the kill switch for one...one...thousand and swith it back on and it will puff out a snoke ring...

dont assume grey is always bad, jetting is the opposite if your running alcohol. my friends 200x used to blow smoke rings, until we redid the wiring harness, i think it was a loose ignition wire...

You should be running it a little rich during the break in period.
