well folks the bike is going very well now, did notice an issue with smoke as sitting on bike out of r/h exhaust does not smell like oil it is a bit white mainly on tick over and stopped in traffic , only started last night, take in to account i have had a complete top end rebuild about 900 miles ago, she is pulling like a train, before i got the top end done it used to be smokey from same exhaust and i was told it was valve stem seal, any ideas folks ?

Does the engine chuff after a good long open road run ?

yes at low speeds she chuffs, i had new complete head and seals rebuild 1k ago, the last issue was stem seal leaking , i dont recall this with old carb thats what makes me think is it something to do with new carb, i will do a video later if i can, i have plenty of power starts great and idles perfectly

Connected to nothing is good...
Next time your out on your bike once the engine is warm get the bike up to speed and de accelerate/accelerate etc to see if ya mate can see if she chuffs...or smokes badly ...if it does
This may be helpful [edit] removed pdf file .(couldn't open it)..this video shows one way how to replace a inlet valve seal....(there are other ways) so long as you are confident the guides are in good nick ....
