help for new rider
06/25/15 at 13:54:14
 
While riding down the road bike was fine. Pulled up to stop light and smoke engulfed. Bike. Pulled over and oil sprayed leg. Shifter side. Stooped and parked. Turned bike off and flames comming out of cobra pipes. Fire went out after 1 minute. Please tell me it's not a total wreck now... I'm hoping it's just a head gasket.  Sorry. No pics. Its a 2005 cop boulevard. 27 thousand miles.  Just changed oil and filter. No other issues with the bike

Any recent work on it, bore us with details, and post pics.
You're lucky it went out.

Just changed oil and filter

JUST, as in, changed oil, went for a ride, blooey?
Where is the oil coming from?
Seriously, I can't see what's wrong.
Did you get oil on your right foot?

If I'm not mistaken, he said he has a C90T Boulevard 1500...Does that model have the same cam chain tensioner problem?

Well if he has a C90T, then he's really lost.

yeah a C90 is a different critter from an S40
OP you got a cell with a camera? or a friend with one? it's not hard to take a pic, post it to photobucket, then post it here
OTOH I dunno how much help we can give you with our focus being S40s
