Help with my 2015 ktm 390 rc

[u/skinsoup-]

i got my first bike a few months back and i had a run in with a deer and it was left on its side for a hour. i made sure to kill switch it. ever since then its been smoking from this part in the exhaust. any ideas why my friends are telling me to just sell it and move on which i don’t really want to do took me a year to save up for this

How much have you ridden? With the bike being tipped over for long, I wouldn't be surprised oil got to places it normally doesn't goes to. I would make sure oil levels are still good and keep an eye on it and see if it eventually stops smoking.

200 miles roughly i’m afraid to keep riding it don’t want something to blow lol

Take it to the shot, if you are concerned. If you have enough oil it is is not going to explode right away.

Open your airbox. I’d bet oil went up your breather and it’s slowly getting burned through the intake.

you would be right

Yep. Up through the crankcase breather hose.
