back again still working or waiting on the axles for the trike project, they where cut wrong. but another question. i've only test rode the trike around in the yard while still tweaking on stuff. it's sat for about a week without starting it. wife had surgery and different thing came up. started it today and for the first time it started puffing white smoke out of the right bank it cleared up after a few min. not missing or anthing but the smoke. now the question could it have blown a gasket just sitting there?

It's unlikely. More likely is that condensation collected since it's last run and that was burning off. I'd ignore it until you can get some trips of reasonable miles on it.

How much smoke did you see? how long did it last? Pull your plugs after it sits for a day & crank it so you can see if coolant spits out the cylinders.
I agree with You first response, It might be condensation.
