blows a little smoke

[macmac]

White smoke is water.... if it ain't it is coolant and it ain't... blue gray is oil, and black is carbon from a over rich mix...

He lives in Grand Rapids Michigan and it is as cold there as it is in Hell Frozen over New Hampster.

Mid 20's at night F so that engine is cold, real cold and all the parts and oil are as cold and running that big monster engine is sucking in water almost like rain, even if it ain't raining.

Add that moisture to a little heat and it makes water.

Ok so lets just say no one believes me. get a lobster or crap pot fill it with cold water, and wipe off any spill on the outside. Place the pot on the barbi outdoors and set the barbi to lets go fast, and just watch that pot leak water right thru the sides...


Of course that pot isn't leaking any water right thru the sides is it, but there is beads of water on the sides ain't thar?? Well ain't thar?

Well there you just made 'water' another way besides drinking beers''

Don't any of you drive cars and trucks? Don't you see steam and water coming out of the exhaust upon a cold start? Steam after a cold start on cold days in traffic when any car just started is steaming from the tail pipes?

macmac.. you crack me up buddy!! thanks for lookin into it.. I'll get my filter tomorrow if all goes as planned and let her warm up. stay tuned.. I'll fill everyone in tomorrow!!

Well run that engine for no less than 15 minutes, and 30 at speed would be better, 1 hour would be even better to drive off moisture you made.
Just maybe at 15 minutes moister is converting to steam and starting to be driven out. At that point maybe you can't see it anymore.

The bike is too new for this to be coolant, and you sure don't want it to be coolant. I am sure it isn't coolant.

Air born water goes right thru that air filter too. Anytime a metalic anything gets warmer than the air it makes water. The water might be inside, or ot might be outside, but water is there.

What I don't know is if in Arizona that you fill a glass in summer with water and ice, if the outside of the glass drips too? I bet it does, but maybe not much.

ok macmac.. ran her for awhile once I got the filter on... and yup.. smoke seemed to vanish. still something I'll keep an eye on.. water was just a drippin out the pipes though.

Well where is the container of nasty old black carbon water on your bike? I'll bet hard coin money you ain't got no such container, so where oh where can this for crap water come from?
