It doesn't matter...thats my point.

assuming that his bike is smoking for longer than the normal amount of time and he is concerned about the condition. He posted earlier about it too in another post.

Neither does mine. If you get any blue smoke at all at startup, it indicates a problem that will get worse with time. Either valve stem seals or rings.

Raptors aint suppossed to smoke.

I would say that if it smoking blue at start up, then there is something wrong.

it depends on how much dirt you sucked through your carbs, and how badly it smoked your rings.
