A little more heat between my legs than usual.
Hey helpful buddies.
I had some issues with the kickstand switch and the tube from the gas tank. I got those taken care of but since then I have noticed some smoke building up a bit slowly as I ride. I thought maybe it would be something that needed to be burned off, but it seems to be persisting and might be getting worse and I was hoping to try and get a jump on it before it caused any real damage. The engine is getting really hot really quick. At a stop light I kind of noticed that the smoke might be coming from an area where the mufflers attach to the engine but I can't quite zero in on it. Any help would be awesome. Thanks.

Clean everything off good & check for a leak from the cap above the exhaust pipe. ( valve adjustment cap). It has a sealing o-ring that can leak & drip on too the exhaust pipe. |
