Hi all ,my mom just bought her first bike (is that aweseome or what?), a 03 Savage. It has 3100 miles on it. She is just learning and can not quite ride yet, so I took it out and only went a couple miles and when I got back, it has a bit of smoke coming out of the exhaust pipe, and also from about midway down the pipe. Here is a pic showing from where it is coming from -

The bike is stock, looks perfect, runs great, just discoloration on the pipe. I have changed the oil in it before I ever rode it and the oil level before was fine. I don't understand why it smokes, it is pristine, my bike has never smoked... Also, Im not sure how obvious blue smoke is, but if I had to say blue or white, I would say this is white smoke.
So what is the reason for it? Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
