Default Spark Plug/Tuner question

I have an 06 UC with se air and slip-on's. SERT is loaded with 141NR004. Bike runs very rich, low fuel mileage. Question is would a better spark plug (like the SE tripple plat) maybe burn the fuel better?
Thanks

Make sure that you didn't load a 25 degree injector map and you have 8 degree injectors. That combination should run perfect with the canned map!!!!! The 25 deg injector map runs about 15% richer than the 8degre... if loaded into an 8 gdegree bike!~
