Do Honda 1200 cc smoke after sitting on side stand if so for how long?

Some Honda 1200 cc motorcycles may emit a small amount of smoke when first started after sitting on the side stand for an extended period of time. This is because some oil can accumulate in the cylinder head when the bike is on its side, and this oil can burn off when the engine is started. The amount of smoke should be minimal and should dissipate within a few minutes of riding. If the bike continues to smoke after several minutes of riding, it is recommended to have it checked by a qualified mechanic.
