Is oil from the exhaust drains normal?

Hi again
As above. When starting from cold I get a bit of blue exhaust smoke - as expected. This soon clears but a lot of smoke (big cloud of it) when accelerating hard especially at mid to high revs (cars behind get a lovely smell of 2T!)
When I get home. even only about 4 miles the side and main stand legs are oily and there are quite a few drop of oil from the weep holes at the bottom of the exhaust pipes. I know smoke is good on a 2T but is this excessive? I have not yet taken out the baffles for a clean but they are quite oily at the outlets.
Thanks again
David
