Engine smoking

<< < (3/7) > >>

K2-K6:
Did you prep the bores at all by glaze busting them to allow running in of new rings?

Johnwebley:
try a basic oil,
  the better oil prevents the parts bedding in,

  you may find it cheaper,but don't use any synthetic till the motor is well run in

philgresty:
looks like car oil, might not be the best for the wet clutch in your cb.

yozzer74:
I had bores crossed hatched I think they call it .yeah it's car oil

UK Pete:
Hey yozzer, my F2 smoked like a pig after the rebuild, then after about 100 miles it started to run clear  until nothing so it could just be bedding in, btw these old bikes really do f=ck with your head, it can be so frustrating, but stick with it fella
