DRZ 400 wont start and exhaust smoke from carb


Recommended Posts

hello last night i was for a ride and i noticed a reduced power on my bike then after 5 mins or less the bike stopped.i saw some few oil on the ground i though it was from junction box.(I run open box without air filter-airbox)

then i tried to start the bike and i saw lots of exhaust smoke coming from the carb and the bike would not start. everything sounded to rotate normal in the engine while i tried to start it.

i belive it has something to do with valves/timing/chain/tensioner.

what do you think ?

It looks like a valve contact spot in your picture , upper left valve , spot is near the center of picture up there.  Odd that the piston would crack with just overheating or lack of oil , worst that should happen is melting the edge around to top ring groove or full seizure , piston still shouldn't crack . What brand piston came in that kit ?
