| Some smoke at a cold startup is normal, you should see my GT750 (3cyl 2-stroke} smoke when I start it up! Once the engine & exhaust get hot there will be little smoke unless your running full throttle.

| Is the RM a two stroke...if so they do tend to smoke a bit but you may be running too much oil in the mix if it is getting worse
