Iff it,s any help an R.1 i owned had a sort of same problem,on the Yamaha in the middle of the sump pan there is a hole,if you took the sump pan off you,d see a metal tube coming from within the engine ,which is an overflow designed to let out excess coolant out,via the middle of the sump pan to the ground,if the rubber sealing washers on that tube are perrished coolant will mix with the oil,. worth a look,..

If a bike,s been standing for a while petrol can gum up in the carbs ,they might need stripping and cleaning,overheating can be caused by weak mixture,have you checked the thermostat?give it a service see what happens,.

Check the petrol tank breather tube isn,t kinked or blocked,also backfiring can be a result of unburnt fuel in exhaust,is it running rich?take the plugs out and see what colour they are they should be a tan colour ,if they are black its running rich,if white its weak,better still take it back and make them put it right ,.

Sounds like the oil isn,t getting to the Cam,s quick enough on initial start up take it back and get it checked , silly question but is the oil level o.k.?
