    Looks ok from here by the image.

    just keep a check on temps if the scoot seems to be hotter than usual ( radient heat ) you may wanna richen a very slight bit.
    if you find after a couple wots your power just fades out it could be a sign of semi seize , it will just start to drop out of wot and feel like its bogging out crawling to a low speed.

    so keep an eye on temps do a second plug chop in say after a couple medium rides and have a second look, it should be around the same colour it is now, and if its a twostroke keep a check on the mixing oil levels to Never run dry ;)

    you could see how it goes with an 81 fella airing on the side of a little rich is always the way to go with a twostroke unless your intention is full on racing and rebuilds every couple mid race seasons.

    DO not thow away those other jets though, you may later on want to bore kit up and will need a more heathly fueling jet ;)

    yep just keep and eye on things for a good week or two, see how it runs get a feel for the scoot.
    9-10 times you will know if something just dont feel right, like throttle snap feels sluggish, power seems to drop out a bit when its hot and likes.

    main thing is ride safe and enjoy the open roads
