Gt550 Issue Smoking
Posted: Wed May 06, 2020 9:17 pm
I have just recently purchased a restored GT550 1974
Question is, the bike runs really well, but under hard acceleration there is alot of smoke, also at 80- 90 km/h there is no visable smoke, but when 100 km/h is reached there is smoke from all exhausts.
I have checked and set up the oil pump exactly to the manual.
Inspection of the spark plugs shows them to be ok. ( the bike has electronic ignition which I have checked and all set up OK.)
Is it normal for these bikes to smoke constantly at 100 km/h or over? I wouldnt have thought so?
