    Smokes when it warms up

    My 1100 smokes when it warms up looking for ideas for what it might be. I am hopeing it is gust valve seals.

    Well, I'd be hoping for something easier, like a fouling plug !

        Usually valve stem seals will drip down into the cylinder when the bike is sitting, so they tend to smoke more at start up than after it is running a bit.
        Could also be rings.
        You may need to do a leak down test on it.

          What color is the smoke? White/blue is oil burning smoke. You can usually smell it too.
