Title: Blue smoke
Post by: greg1953 on 26 October 2014, 01:09:12 pm

My Fazer 1000 has stood for about a month without running as I've had the exup out and cleaned it, refitted with lots of Coppaslip however on start up it's smoking, not a great amount but prior to this it didn't smoke,I've run it till hot but it still smokes, could this be the Coppaslip burning off or do they all smoke after they've been stood a while ? it's currently on SORN so I can't take it for a long ride.

Probably just the copper slip. Plus any other grease on the valve from your grubby mitts.
