where is it coming from? when i first got my 400ex, i would see a little bit of smoke coming off of it and they told me it was the powdercoat or whatever the frame is burning off cause of the hot engine.

cant really tell i'de have to take the plastic off its coming from somewhere in the top of the engine....we did desil bath all the parts but it doesnt smell like desil burning off, or like it does when you first buy one. i'm going riding next weekend and if its still smoking then we'll be pulling all the plastic and the gas tank off again to get a good look at it
