Smoky exhaust?

[G4L4XY]

Upon starting up the cbr to let her warm up a little after the first 30 seconds the exhaust starts being a bit smoky, letting her run for another minute or so and the smoke eventually dissipates, is this reason for concern or just normal?

What colour is the smoke?

Blue = oil
White = condensation
White + sweet smell= coolant
Black = fuel
Brown = It has shit itself

This.
It's probably just condensation, I wouldn't think such a late model CBR would have eaten the valve stem seals yet.


Wait, it's fucked, gimmie!

OI! Get in the fuckin line! I baggsed it on the dodgy helmet thread!

[SMOKEU]

It will be condensation.

[G4L4XY]

Just looks so horey when I start it and it's billowing with smoke. It's due for an oil change, hopefully that will make it smoke less

[ducatilover]

Have you taken it for a good long ride to get the 'zorst nice 'n hot? Do a skid?

Lol bro I rode it up from Wellington the day I brought it, take it on long rides all the time :)

[ducatilover]

Good, then do a skid. How many fuckin' times need I say it?

[ellipsis]

...if my GL1000 doesn't smoke big time on start up I get very worried, like their may be something wrong...

Yeah then the next thread will be "where can i find cheap replacement parts"

[FJRider]

Condensation in the silencers ... spray CRC into the exhaust when you stop.

It smells like exhaust because it IS the exhaust ...


AND ...

it's a honda. Get a Yamaha ... THEY never do that .. :innocent:

It's a standard fitting installed by most manufacturers to catch condensation. Removal of such usually means BLUE will make an appearance ... with flashing lights ... (for effect)

I find that glass pack mufflers create a shit load of steam in the mornings.
The dustbin sized one on my 1300 makes enough steam on mid winter mornings to make a passable impression of a steam train.

Funny that, the Hyosung never did it!!
