Just got an excellent deal on an '05 FZ6....5000 miles and new tires and so clean I cant believe it. I've had an FZ for a few years and it is a good bike.
But....there's always a but...got it home...let it sit for a few hours and then just started it up for a few minutes and shut it off and i noticed a wisp of smoke coming from one pipe of the aftermarket pipes. It came out for, maybe a minute and then disappeared.
Now...I cant recall ever having seen this before in my stock exhaust FZ.
The bike does everything it's supposed to do otherwise...no oil leaks I can feel or see...it smells a bit but all FZ6's seem to smell when thery run....but, this smoking pipe ?
Any ideas?
