Hi everyone,
I recently bought a 1973 cb350f, which is actually my first motorcycle. It seemed to run great when I test drove it. The next day I washed and polished the hell out of it, and again, it ran fine around the block. It's been sitting in my garage over the last week or so, while I got the registration and such taken care of. During that time I only changed the air filter and lubed the clutch cable. Today, it started fine, but would only idle for a few seconds, and then abruptly die. I could keep it going if I gave it a little throttle, but then I realized there was a little white smoke coming out of at least the 1 exhaust. Also, the idle speed seems to be pretty low, like under 1000. I don't think that was the case last week. Anyway this is a major bummer, since I really wanted to start riding this thing. Does the smoke indicate a major problem?
