Re: Smoke in morning start

I think that's normal. Even my FZ-S was smoking when fired up in the morning. No smokes throughout the entire day after that.

Re: Smoke in morning start

Usually a lot of smoke is produced when the piston rigs go bust and the engine oil starts seeping in the combustion chamber.
But that smoke is produced all the time when the engine is running. As you said the there is no smoke after the morning start, the smoke you see might be due to condensation inside the silencer or fuel not burning properly in the cold due to used up spark plugs (I'm just speculating).

First, open up the spark plug and see its condition. Good idle spark plug images and compare it with the Google images. It will show you other spark plugs with too rich or too lean Air to fuel mixture. Replace the spark plug and make sure the AFR ratio is tuned. That should eliminate most of the smoke.
Also, check your engine oil level regularly, if you notice any drop in the level, the piston rigs might have gone kaput and you might need some engine work done from a good mech.

Condensation smoke, do not worry. My motorcycle does that too, p150 ug4.5 and I am at Uttarakhand, a cold place. It smokes the hookah for few minutes after which all goes well.
Ride safe ! ATGATT.

Re: Smoke in morning start

First make sure that it is indeed white smoke and NOT blueish smoke.
My car spews blue smoke when I crank first thing in the morning and then throughout the day it is fine.
The engine is very old, and the piston seals are showing it's age.
