  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Ok so today I looped out and the bike was upside down for about 10-15 sec. it continued to run so I picked it up and rode back down the hill. For about 10 min more I had a big blue cloud, from my transmission oil, then it went away and ran great. I was not concerned knowing it was upside down but my KTM friends said that should not happen on a 2T. So should I be concerned?:excuseme:
 
+1^^^

probably just loaded your lower end full of gas/premix...for some reason took a minute too finally come up...

surely the crankcase breather doesnt go into the airbox like the 4 strokes does it?
 
No the breather does not go into the air box. And the smell was not that of premix but of 10/40.
 
Are you missing/low on trans oil?

The crankcase and the gearbox are not connected. You should never burn trans oil unless a seal has failed.
 
Do you think some of your trans oil might have leaked out the breather tube and oiled up the outside of the motor or exhaust? That'll smoke pretty good. Could last several minutes depending on what go oiled.
 
Another possibility, you could of had a bunch of oil (spooge) laying up in the powervalve area. When you laid your bike over, it ran into the cylinder. If your crankcase seal was bad on the tranny side it would be sucking oil all the time. I still think you ran gas into your crank and it could have even filled your pipe a little and mixed with some spooge laying in it.
 
There's also residual 2 stroke oil buildup in your crankcase. If you overturn the bike with the motor warm then the residual oil (minus gasoline) will drop into the combustion chamber. Not saying this is what happened, but its a possibility.
