The exhaust gases from your bike may change color or shade for some reason. You will learn from this article why white smoke comes from the muffler (or any other unusual color), as well as what needs to be done.
White smoke: causes and solutions
This type of smoke is less dangerous than others because there are times when it is not dangerous. However, its diagnosis is necessary to avoid engine overheating. Here are some possible sources of white smoke and possible solutions.
Head gasket problem
White smoke usually occurs when coolant enters the cylinder. and evaporates there. This leak occurs through the head gasket, which introduces water or antifreeze into the combustion chamber and causes smoke.
Therefore, to solve this problem, it is necessary to check the head gasket pattern and valve and replace the latter to ensure that it is sealed.
Other Causes of White Smoke
In rare cases, white smoke may be caused by impurities in the fuel. This case is more serious and implies that higher quality fuel must be used.
However, be careful not to confuse problematic white smoke with the motorcycle's reaction when starting off in cold weather, which is completely normal. This is why in winter we must warm up the engine before leaving.
