Default still smoking after

I have replaced rings,valve seals on TRX 350 fe put it all back together no blue smoke but after running for a few mins it started to smoke again but not blue this time. its kinda looks a black this time, did I do something wrong? maybe adjusted valves wrong I don't know.
I had cylinder de-glazed, and had honda dealer grind valve seats and put new seals on
Thanks

Intake valves may be a little snug. Carb float hanging up, choke valve not closing all the way, primer diaphram is shot
Just a few things to check into

What year of 350? I have a 87 trx350 that smokes all the time. How much of a job was the rebuild - How much money did you have in the rebuild?

It is a 2003 trx 350, and it was very easy to do I just bought a service manual for that bike and it tells you step by step. The service manual explains everything very well. I spent $165.00 on parts and cost me another $170.00 to regrind valve seats and have cylinder honed
