Default Blue puff of smoke

i ride a 2014 street bob only 1500 miles on it. the bike was very hot i was poppin the clutch a handful of times and was trying to wheelie and doing burnouts then my bike shot out a puff of blue smoke right by the airfilter and there was something that leaked on my pipe under the air filter no idea what it could be, let it cool down right after started it up and i didnt see any smoke come out from anywhere so i think im good?

Probably good? Probably not. It's not supposed to belch blue smoke and fluids. You abused the bike...something broke. Machines don't fix themselves, nor do they have recuperative powers to heal themselves. What ever you broke is still broke.

Just my humble opinion.

be nice to your bike and it'll last many years

My dad always told me "be good to the horse when you don't need it him, and he'll be good to you when you DO need him."


Sage advice. You treat a motorcycle badly, it has ways to get back at you. It's just the way it is. My suggestion would be to not advertise it to the world on the Interweb.
