Hi Steve,
I would first go for, clogged breather/hose for White smoke , according to the manual , worn - rings / valve seals / valve guides / cylinder worn or cracked or scored / head gasket broken between oil return & cylinder .
Black smoke.. Air filter clogged / main jet too large or loose / choke stuck / fuel level too high in float chamber / float needle valve held off needle seat .
Brown smoke.. main jet too small or clogged / fuel flow insufficient / fuel inlet needle valve stuck / carb inlet duct loose / air filter not sealed .
Good luck with it
thanks for the info, hopefully have a look next week

Welcome Steve, i'm surprised you (being a smoker fan) didnt get 'junior' a DT125 or DT125x.
Those ones are supposed to smoke
I would check the oil level and then be wanting to witness this smoke for myself. I suppose you bought it privately as seen?
'blackhat250' will be along shortly all excited about the smell of a kwacker stroker
seller said that he had done an oil change in case there was too much oil in but it changed nothing

Picture number 52 looks like an old KV75

Hi to you all,
Great looking forum, please do not ban me but i am a Kawasaki (sorry about swearing) man at heart but have just got my son a XT125x for his 17th birthday, it starts and seems to run ok but the seller told me that when it warms up it starts to smoke alot, i do not want to cause any damage by running it so what could it be and what should i be looking for.
It has 8ooo miles on the clock.
If it helps my 1st big bike was a RD250c in 1976 from Granby motors, (i wonder if that is still out there, RAU 65R)then a RD400c which i had beckett tuned by a local hero Terry Beckett.
Lets just see what this goes for
