  • Smoke from startup?

    Hey everybody,
    so i had a puff of smoke come out of the exhausts upon startup, the other day. usually when im starting the bike in the mornings, i see something come out the back end, but believe it to be just evaporation from the cold air. but this time, it was hot outside and definitely a puff. any ideas? i had a spill a couple of weeks ago and something might have gotten tweaked when the bike flipped, 3 times, but other than cosmetic, couldnt tell of any other damage. thoughts?
    thanks

    no big deal. parts contract in cold engines and have the largest specs and gaps etc. it's not uncommon.
    If it smokes more when it gets hotter, you got isues.

    If your worried... do a compression check and keep an eye on the oil level.
