Just went out to start the zxr, and noticed white smoke coming from the exhaust. I swear itwasnt doing it couple of weeks ago when i last took it out. Is this just becuase of the cold? Or is it something else? Ive had the headgasket done about a month ago so wont be that...
any ideas or am i just paranoid!?

Re: White Smoke from exhaust- cold morning?
only way to tell is wheel the bike into your lounge next to a nice big radiator
then fire it up in the lounge the next morning!

Its the cold mate. You can tell when you're bike is cold as it smokes like you say. Just abit of condensation.
