i checked the oil its good looks like honey do you think it would smoke if the carb is not set right beacuase i dont think i rejetted it right because it ran faster with the stock exhaust w/stock settings.

Ummmmm, its hard to say. Like I said, it could be rings or valve seals. Maybe someone else will chime in.
