  • White Smoke!

    I am using Hero Honda Hunk. I have ridden 35000 km in last 2 years.
    The problem is that my bike silencer gives WHITE smoke when acceleration goes over 7000 rpm. What could be the problem?

      Its because of the incomplete combustion in the engine. Looks like you tanked up adultrated fuel.

      Get your spark plug checked. Clean it and check for the minimum gap. Incase its gone kaput, get it changed.

      Also, there are chances that, the engine oil could be getting into the cylinder head and might be burning during the combustion process. Check for worn piston rings.

      Hope this helps.

        Smoke shows that your bike is consuming oil . Get that issue checked by a competent mechanic . You might need to rebore your engine with first oversize piston . What mileage are you getting and what engine oil are you running ?

          I think your bikes's piston rings are worn.If they are not worn,then definitely you are using adulterated fuel as devils_friend said.

              @rubaby its either adulterated fuel or problem with piston ring which is letting engine oil in the combustion chamber.
              try to change the petrol bunk for adulterated fuel before changing piston and its rings...

              Well black smoke comes as incomplete combustion...

                  Some oil seal is busted or piston rings are in end of their life which is why the bike is smoking . Show your bike to a competent mechanic , he would suggest a bore replacement or reboring as per condition
