so this morning when i started my bike a lot of smoke was coming out of the exhaust.. first time i've noticed it. once i got on the road it wasnt enough for me to see while riding and when i got to work 20 minutes later there was nothing as i idled while parking...

it WAS probably the coldest and dampest morning so far for this bike and i wonder if that has anything to do with it? i'm imagining it has something to do with the moisture in the air during combustion..

normal?

White smoke, Black smoke, what did it smell like. Did it smell like burnt oil or did it have a gas smell to it.

It was white/grey... honestly I didn't smell it... the wind was blowing pretty hard and I was running late so I didn't bend down to sniffysniff. If it does the same thing tonight when I go home or tomorrow morning I'll be sure to get a closer whiff.

white/grey = water
blue = oil
black = bad burn
