es, incorrect timing will cause the cylinders to run hot - but If it was a timing issue it would most likely be on both cylinders.
Check for:
- Intake leak (Check the intake seals at the carb and head)
- Exhaust leak at the head.
- Bad exhaust valve. (Do a wet and dry compression test or a leakdown test.)
Also make sure that you have the right spark plugs in it.
It could also be a blocked water or oil passage, but If the head was loose there's a good possibility that the alignment with the intake changed and I suspect that you most likely have an intake leak where the intake mates with the head. You can check it by spraying some carb cleaner or WD-40 around the intake seals with the bike running. If the engine speed changes when you spray around the seals you have an intake leak.
Thick white smoke is caused when coolant gets into a cylinder and from there into the exhaust. It is a sign that if it is not fixed real soon, you will blow or burn up your engine.
When air is compressed it gets hot because of something called adiabatic heating. The friction of the compressor adds more heat. Even if you fill a cylinder off a big high pressure cylinder, the one being filled gets hot. If you did the reverse and got a cylinder and cracked it open to let the gas out, it gets very cold. The quicker you try and fill a cylinder, the hotter it gets. You can fill a tank so fast it bubbles the paint, and that can even damage the strength of the metal. For this reason there are filling rates to ensure cylinders don't get too hot. By placing the cylinder in a water bath, it helps the cylinder to stay cool. In reality unless the cylinder was very long and skinny, the surface area to volume of the cylinder is not really great enough to cool the gas inside the cylinder very quickly so there is some doubt as to how much it helps.
4 cylinder
Due to the type of metal used in the production of the exhaust pipes, it is very normal for any motorcycle exhaust pipe to turn red when running, especially at an idle. When the bike is moving the air cools the pipe. That is why the street bikes have chrome covers, so you don't see the red/blue pipe.
it gets very hot and burns any left over unburnt fuel in the exhaust to reduce emissions.
try cleaning the egr valve as this gets very dirty after high mileage.
As the Jets always fly on greater heights, the tempreature of the atmosphere is quite cold. As the exhaust gases comes out of the cylinder exhaust it's temp goes down suddenly due to its sudden expansion and gets traps into the dust particle or smoke present at there thus forms a streak
if its just a little and it stops when the dar gets very hot -- its just condensation which formed in the exhasust system over night -- when started - the water is blown out -- and when the exhaust system gets very hot the water is evaporated -- that's whyits alsways good to take a nice long drive once a week - to burn that water out of the system- or the system rusts
i have no idea what type of motor that the troope even has but your exhuast manifold is gonna be under the hood and the very starting point of your exhaust(the part that touches the motor and gets real hot real quick)
The exhaust valve gets hotter than the intake valve.
The water you see comming from the exhaust is condensation. A by product of the combustion process is water and until the exhaust system gets hot enough to maintain the water in the exhaust in a gaseous state it will condense (fall out of the exhaust stream) in the exhaust system. After the engine gets warm and heats up the exhaust system the water does not condense in the exhaust system anymore and is dirrected into the atmosphere. P.K.
