Kinda hard to tell in the picture but they all seem to be about the same color as well as I can see them. Light tan is what you want on the insulator. As for oil in the threads that could be caused by several things, oil in the spark plug well for one thing. I wouldn't worry about that if the bike's running okay. I really don't see anything wrong with your plugs. Maybe with a better picture but not at the moment.

They look ok to me. A bit of oil in the cylinders at startup might explain plug 1, and that won't be unusual.

#3 looks a little lean ans it looks like 1&2 were overtightened and 3&4 were under tightened.
