i'm the type of person who just has bad luck. Nothing ever goes as planned etc. newayz, i bought the full comp yoshi kit for my z400 and i was forced to completely remove the radiator and fan and shroud [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] i even had to take the elbow off the front of the cylinder to get the old header out. it was a real pain in the @$$...oh yea i also put on a new prodesign air kit and upped the main jet to 160 with the lid off. now i've got it all together and crank her up...i see some blue smoke coming out of the pipe...blue is oil correct? is that the pipe burning off the new? next as it's idling i see white smoke coming from the flexible hose going from the water pump to the bottom of the radiator. white smoke coming from there can't be good. keep in mind that i pretty much was forced to drain all the coolant against my will....the motor seems to get hot a lot quicker, but the fan still kicks in, which tells me the thermostat is working which means theres some coolant getting to the cylinder. can't someone please explain the white smoke coming from the coolant hose? i've got a trip planned in a couple days and i need this thing to rip [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] thanx

You will definately have some residual fluids burn off when you put a new motor together. Hard to tell from here if you put it together wrong.
