hi all looking for some advice my 2008 rev 4 started up okay this morning but had a bit of white smoke coming from the exaughst with a little oil spitting out with the gas it then cleared when warmed up but after 5 minutes started spitting oil again then cleared it seems intermitent i checked the engine oil sight glass and it appears that i may have put too much in as the level was way past the top of the glass

any thoughts suggestions as to what could be causing this ?

many thanks

Firstly I would drain the excess oil , see what's happening then,

cheers bike is draining as we speak

Let's us know how you get on ... I've just had to drain my gas gas tank due to excessive some and oil splutter but it was too much 2 stroke and was not intermittent ...

right drained oil and put fresh in a little bit less than recomended plus i put a clean un oiled filter in to eliminate that source of oil also then checked water level ran bike until i heard the fan kick in four times still smoking with a little oil coming out of the silencer ?????? i'm stuck taking it up to pennine on monday for andy to look at

Does the oil smell like fuel?

Sticky float would do this

yes it does smell like petrol and oil plus its watery
