Was riding a friends 400EX (K&N filter, jet kit,air box lid removed) this weekend and smoke would come out of the exhaust when I would let off the throttle. I was running in 5th gear (high speed) on flat ,winding fire roads when it happend. I have an idea what it is but am wondering what others think or hopefully know for sure. What would be the fix? Thanks for your input!

Sounds like if you were running wide open for awhile the rings might have melted a lil bit and its letting some oil up.-darren
