Smoking bike!!

Post by richardleonardadi »

Hope anyone can help..

My Race bike RKMD Kings Ruddy bike from last year. So no rubbish that I might find in the corner of my shed..

The bike runs fine, starts and runs and goes well not a problem . But the problem is that it smokes after a bit but not oil just condensation and water. I have drained the tank and fresh fuel with additive but its not as bad as it was but still a bit smoky.
I have been blacked flagged twice now so any advice would be great...

Is it losing water ?
Could be head gasket.

if it's just burning oil then could be worn or damaged rings/bores or maybe valve stem oil seals.
