Hi after abit of advice - smelt burning oil on a ride out and my friend saw some blue smoke on heavy acceleration prior to this it had been parked on the side stand - I know the 8v models suffered with burning oil after being on the side stands but thought 16v didn`t suffer with this issue ?
Also wouldn`t it burn off quickly mine was smoking after a 30 minute ride - any other issues what would cause this other than knackered piston rings ? Bike has done 85k miles would an oil change help or even a thicker grade oil or am I just hoping ?
Seems to smoke only on heavy acceleration although it did smoke on start-up after being on the side stand for a few days - just worried engine is worn although power dosen`t seem to be affected ?
Thanks Mark.......
