It'll probably stop smoking when it runs out of oil

any ideas on what the problem could be

i have an idea that the problem is insufficient maintenance and having run the thing out of oil in the first place why would anyone do that anyway yanno you need to maintain stuff theres a good chance the entire engine is junk now certainly the head valves guides and things are goners

Chances are a bike that has no oil, along with the owner not knowing it has no oil :shock: , IT IS IN BAD SHAPE!
