I know the exhaust is going to be a bit warm after a ride, but it appears that the rubber(?) rings around the muffler and between it and the clamps are smoking. Is this normal?
Bike is a GY6 150, 1200 mi, completely stock except for a new carb, which is the same size, just not clogged and un-cleanable. The old one couldn't be taken apart, but the bike was doing it with the last one. It has the PAIR system which I thought was supposed to feed fresh air to the exhaust gas to both burn off excess vapors and keep it cool. I didn't hear any popping from the exhaust on the ride.
Weather here was about 60-65 when riding, I only got a plate on it two weeks ago, so I didn't do any riding in the true summer heat. In fact with the sun going down it was downright chilly at 55mph.
I can't think of any other specific info that might help you diagnose this issue, but if you need more, just ask. Thanks in advance.
