is this something that just started, or is it after you did some mods or anything that has changed recently? does it happen always, or just cold?

 

if it's been happening for awhile, it's probably jetting, but if it's been running great, then out of the blue it started smoking, maybe look elsewhere. Could be bad fuel or problem with the float.

 

Personally, I think Amsoil 32:1 is rich, more like 40:1 or 50:1 would be good. Amsoil is commonly ran at 60:1 with no problems.

it does it all the time befor the mods and all i think personaly that i may be runing to rich of oil mixture but it doesnt foul plugs even when trail ridding and luggin it around
