I haven't taken the carbs off, all I have done is flush the carbs, new plugs(.035), changed oil an oil filter, new k&n air filter.It's wird cuz when I was ridding it befor it would rev way over 3500rpm. It seams like a rev limiter kicks in and kills the motor then comes back on after the revs drop back down.

Hey man, sounds to me like you may just have a clogged jet. You gotta take them apart and clean them out. theres no other way unfortunately. There is always the possibility of it opening up while you are at WOT and flipping it. However, one thing you may want to try before that is through a can of Seafoam in that sucker and let it run for a while turn it off let it sit for a day and then start it up and run it. That stuff works miracles and may be the one you are looking for. i am about to clean my carbs in a week though we shall see.
good luck.
ps seafoam is like 6 bucks at any auto store accept no imitations.

Therabbit created a very good post on cleaning the carbs....but I would take it one step further and remove the jets (little brass screws insided the bowl. and makes sure that all of the holes are clear use a very fine wire, but nothing wider than the holes, because you might make the holes larger which will cause problems. There should be two there. Plus check the oriface where they go into...should be able to blow (canned air used for cleaning PCs or carb cleaner) through there and should come out the other side.

You can download the Honda service manual from here http://hondatech.info/downloads/Moto/

Also, Stephygee, a member of CBR Forums has a few manuals on his website.

I wouldn't give up yet - that white smoke could just be the rubbing alcohol.

Did it seem to run any better or worse?

I'd get some fresh gas in there and you really might want to get some sort of gas tank sealer so it doesn't start rusting again.

If all else fails go to a Honda mechanic.

That should do the trick

Is it whitish blue or just white? Does is have a smell of oil to it?

Whitish blue is most likely oil. I'd say Headgasket. But could be a ring on the piston (I'm guessing, but I'm not sure, that checking the compression might help determine a ring issue.

If it's white, does it stop after some time? Might be condensation built up in the exhaust system. If it continues on, then probably the headgasket. Does the water level in the radiator (or resevoir) go down.

I'm not a mechanic...these are just my guesses. Someone else might have better ideas.
