See full version: Too much smoke in my 2 stroke
I have had the bike for a year and a half now. I did an engine rebuild as soon as I got it because the cylinder was all messed up (just like the piston, rings, etc) and used the same kind of oil during this period (Motul 2t 710).
It used to produce much smoke when the engine was cold but stop doing it after 1 minute of riding (and rarely producing visible "clouds" of smoke), but now it produces smoke even when hot. I rode it for 30 km yesterday and when I got home and put it in neutral it kept producing visible amounts of smoke when I was revving it. Also, it struggles to idle (only when hot). It starts up very easily when cold and idles just fine. Generally, it rides normal and I did not notice decreased performance. here
I have a 2004 Cagiva Raptor 125 and for the last week it's been letting out smoke a bit too hard: more
The oil pump setting is normal. [links]
Personally, I use BRP XD100, and there's no smoke or smell.

I've found any of the 100% synthetic oils will be easier on the smoke and nose, but a little harder on the pocketbook.
im going to try the synthetic stuff and see what that does. if it doesnt work, ill look into the kicker again.
