    Blue smoke is normally oil.

    could be over filled after an oil change,or worn rings,damaged barrels.

    If it is burning oil I would expect to find some residue around the exhaust outlet and possibly nearby bodywork.

    Its just one of the many oil burners - don't let it worry you, mine did it loads , had the rings replaced as it was drinking oil like nothing on earth - the oil use dropped but it still blew smoke at times.

    Mates have ripped the p!ss for years out of my bike - but the engine had no wear on any parts after 75k

    If you open your engine, go with afetrmarket piston and a new cylinder block just changes the rings don't solve anything.

    Does it smell like oil ? could it be over fueling on full throttle ? blocked or restricted airfilter ? bad map ?
