Hello everyone,

I justed rolled my Honda Rincon 700 gps down a mountain about 150', it tumbled pretty well and only broke a few cosmetics including the meter. However, today I got the tire seated back to the rim and bent some stuff back in place, but noticed that it is smoking and appears oil is coming from the exhaust. The bike is running as usual, but the smoke has me alarmed, so my question is do you think it will pass after riding awhile, the bike was on its side for about 15 minutes before we could get the prowler up the hill to pull it from the tree that broke it's fall. It probably went end over kettle about 4-5 time. Thanks for your feedback and any suggestions that you may have on dealing with the white smoke and there is oil in the exhaust.

 

I am going to say the oil is from it laying on its side and will go away after riding it a little! What caused the bike to tumble?

 

Glad you apparently weren't hurt.

Was it running while it was on its side for 15 minutes? If so, that is a long time to run, likely without oil pressure.

If not, then I would guess oil seeped past the rings or out the breather and ended up in the muffler or exhaust. If that is the case, I would expect it to clear up.

Welcome to the forum.
