predator white smoke

[Predatormx98]

My 06 predator blows a little white smoke when it climbs down after being revved. Someone said bad top end gaskets. Just wanted to know if it would be a bad idea to ride, because im about to leave on a trip for st.anthony sand dunes.

I think that white smoke is usually burning oil or leaking anti-freeze into the cylinder(think this one). If its burning oil, just keep a very close eye on the oil level....if its leaking antifreeze into the cylinder, then its not good to run it as you aren't getting near the lube that you should be getting.

white is coolant, black is oil or really rich. burning oil I would probably still ride it coolant def not JMO. It could also be something as simple as sucking up some water through the intake.....youll have to drain the oil and see. Hows the coolant level?

My coolants fine and the oil was changed 1 ride ago. Is it possible to suck some water in after washing it getting the filter wet?

[katch26]

yea or going through water while riding

white is probably coolant but could be normal is it isn't too much. black is just soot (probably exhaust), blue is oil and will smell.
