Hi guys,

Just need help yesterday while revving my bike above 10k rpm my bike gave white smoke and when i pulled it down then it was normal what could be the reasons please help ???

RanjithMN · 03-06-2010, 01:15 PM

@umesh,sry i dont know abt the smoke but ABOVE 10K??WTH?
frankly i wouldn't recommend regularly going over 8k,FZ isnt designed for tht.any specific reason why you revved over 10k?

k2cool_87 · 03-06-2010, 01:24 PM

normally white smoke is a sign of oil being burnt...so dunno wat hppnd but that might be the case....

just run the bike for a few kms normally and if u find something odd get it checked from the svc once otherwise it should be fine.....

the white smoke is due to the overheating of the engine....

prolonged operation of the bike in lower gears and above the redline can damage the engine....

many things can go wrong such as:
1. piston rings may be damaged
2. oil burning up which will lead to ceasing of the engine.
3. or the worst the engine might blow away (usually happens in cars with prolonged use above redline area)....

try not to do things like this or giving your bike to newbies....

RanjithMN · 03-06-2010, 04:22 PM

Not really sure what the reason is but if its the first time that has happened then its prob cause of maxing the engine,if it doesnt happend again i dont think you have to bother.

But remember,FZ isnt a red-liner,i am someone who maxes FZ to its limits but i don't cross 8k..there is nothing much beyond tht actually....and 10 is tooo much
ive only gone beyond 8k while trying to chase a R1 LOL!

btw wait for sometime,someone like JD can help you understand the reason
