Bike smokes after long wheelies?!?

I have an 04 GSXR 600 with almost 19000 miles on it. I haven't been stunting much of it, but here latley when I ride it in 1st gear at about 11 o'clock, after I set it down it starts to smoke for a second then stops. I know that I need to get an oil pick up for it, but I was wondering if it means that my motor is about to go?

that's exactly what it is.
there's a way to connect the air vent/bleed tubes so they don't go into the airbox so that smoking stops

Re: Bike smokes after long wheelies?!?

there's a vent manifold in front of the airbox. two tubes in and one out. one tube comes from the back of the engine (can't remember where). the other one comes from the front of the engine, the cyl head.
connect these tubes by replacing them with one tube from head to back of the motor (I think it's the tranny) and you should be good.

um take you tank off and youll see the vent line comeing out of the back of the motor.. it runs up to the airbox.. follow it though the box to where it exits.. it will go back into the motor(its not all one piece of line,its just how thay vent the motor) run the line stright back in to the motor

As hondas or at least the f4i - (aka ultimate stunt bike... ha ha.) Hydro locks when it falls over and is still running which ends up bending rods, destroying motors ect, unless you make little mods also... What a great feature that is..

Get off Hondas nuts there you. There getting sore from you deep throating them all over stuntlife...

Re: Bike smokes after long wheelies?!?

So, the oil is leaking out of one of the tubes into the motor some how and causing it to burn it off and smoke? I thought one of my seals or something may be leaking and causing it or my motor about to blow. Do you have that problem with your gixxer?

I believe the oil pickup fixes that problem and you don't have to do anything to the airbox. I know someone who has 2 gixxers... 1 street and 1 stunt.. the streetbike has no pick up and smokes in long freeway wheelies, but the stunt bike with the pick up doesn't do that.. Anyone have the some smoke problem that runs a pickup with their gixxer???

Oil pick up is a must if you have a gixxer.. Unless you think not having oil sucked up into your motor when doing wheelies is good for it... Or... you always have 1000 dollars laying around to replace motors.. Do yourself a favor and get the pick up right now..

I believe the stuntex is $60 though, unless they raised their prices...
