I purchased a 2009 C14 with 3,800 miles in June 2016. I think the bike got it's original miles "normally" and then it sat untouched for 6 years. I knew there would be issues associated with it's extended storage. In December 2017 I had 13,000 trouble free miles, but had not ridden the bike for about 5 weeks. I decided to go on a 3,000 mile plus trip, and while prepping the bike, I started it to move it. Smoke came out of the cowling. The bike appears to have a valve cover leak. The next time I started it it smoked 1/2 as bad and when I left for the trip, I could only smell it. Logged 3,400 trouble-free and smokeless miles, but... Bike now has 16,800. What do y'all recommend I request the dealership do?
1. Just change the valve cover
2. 1 plus check the valves
3. 2 plus change the spark plugs
4. 3 plus...??
Is there anything else on my "barn find" that should be changed or inspected while we're opening her up.
I changed the oil, air filter, and shaft fluids myself when I bought it. I did have to add coolant before the recent trip and it's level remains unchanged.
