Default 04 GSXR600 Smoking???

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey Everyone,
I have around 1k on my 04 600 and went for a ride with my buddy tonight. Its about 45-50 degrees and he said my bike is noticably smoking. Not constant blue smoke or anything, not just steam either, but some smoke even after its warmed up. I dont want to get nervous but a brand new bike should not smoke, right? I went VERY easy the first 1k miles. Didnt take it above 7500 till 600 mile service, didnt take it above 10k until 800 miles. I followed the manual to a T. So should I be worried? At idle, if I rev it up it smokes a little as Im rolling the throttle back? What do you think? Its under warranty for 4 years but still...Thanks in advance.
