I guess he’s kinda right bout this dirtbike first business but in all reality you’re gonna have to man up sometime dirtbikes are only good for getting use to operating the clutch….other then that its a different type of riding when using streetbikes

On my bike, as soon as I fire it up, there is a lot of smoke coming off the whole of the exhaust. Its isn’t a gasket. Does anyone know what might be causing it?

You make a good point. I have ridden both dirt and road bikes. The biggest differences is that you need to use counter steering on a road bike but you can get away with not using it on a dirt bike (but you will ride a dirt bike better if you understand what counter steering is and use it). This is what caught me out when I went from dirt to road bike.
