Smoke pouring......uh oh

[Nickhimself]

ok so heres my issue, for anyone who knows this bike sat for a long time before i got ahold of it, got the carbs cleaned (might still be a tiny issue here) and she runs under her own power now, but its smoking out of the breather coming off the head and white smoke out of the oil fill cap, no smoke coming from the exhuast.....

i have a whole can of seafoam in the tank for the last month now (havnt had it on the road yet) is read that seafoam will make it do this......or do i have a more serious issue on my hands like blown rings

You're not supposed to put the whole can in the tank. Seafoam tells you that too.

Wait a second. If you put sea foam in the tank, then you should have smoke coming out of the exhaust. If it's coming out of the crank case. I would be worried that the needle valves are stuck and gas has flowed down into the crank case. How much oil is in it? Does it look over filled?

You have a valid point, check your oil.
