Slight smoke out of exhaust?

My pit bike has started smoking slightly ever since I messed around with the air mixture There is also soot on the end can. Are my rings on the way out? Only had the bike about 2 month.

Thanks
James

Re: Slight smoke out of exhaust?

It sounds like its running to rich ? it wouldent be the rings already if you would have treated it with some respect, can you remember what you done and what the fuel mixture was before you changed it, i would reccomend go back to your old fuel / air mixture then determine what the problem is.
