Engine oil is still fine, and the dipstick looks fine too...

I guess I could be overfilling it, but I put in a bout 1800ml (almost 2 full quarts) according to what the manual says and when I drain it I take out the frame oil stop nut and the bottom of the engine nut, if that makes sense? Am I missing a place to also drain from?

I have not done any major water crossings.

My bike isn't much of a hard start anymore, except a little more difficult when the engine is cold. Sometimes it will do the smoke and sometimes not out the exhaust?

Seems like my bike isn't very "consistent" on things, but I probably should disassemble my crankcase cover and head cover and see what's going on...

thanks for help!
