I have a 1996 road King and it is smoking thru the exhaust. I took the exhaust off and this is what's going on inside. Is this an indication of bad valve seals?
How many miles?
Seriously though, if your gonna take the heads of you might want to have the guides checked as well.... Or maybe even a performance upgrade.... Doesn't hurt while they're off.....
pull the plugs, how do they look,what color smoke, blue could mean oil (rings or valve guides), black could be carb problem, running rich. more diagnoses needed before you tear the motor apart. doesn't look all that greasy to be burning oil and smoking. Compression and or leakdown test would be a good idea like Omaha suggested
Well, your Road King is 21 years old, so it's old enough to smoke. Also drink and vote.
Hey uncle g. Certain counties in ny state are now making the smoking age 25. Supposedly the drinking age too. You can still go to war at 18 though. Just found this out at the one headshop.

Haven't heard anything about it around here. Maybe a "downstate" thing.
