Idle and power issues
Needing some help I lot my bike sit for over a year and didn't start it and it had a little old gas it in. So filled the tank and started it and it ran great then boom ****ty idle and no power until after 3k I changed my plugs cause they fouled up fresh oil my compression is 185 all the way across exp 3 cyclinder is 180 but it still smoke and wants to die? Any ideas I'm thinking I have some old gas that's clogged something so I was thinking sea foam and injection cleaner and run it at high Rpms and try to burn what ever is in it ouT

Damn, that much smoke would bring Willie Nelson out to help you....
What's your oil look like? That smoke looked a little too white for my liking. Does it (the oil) look like chocolate milk or black coffee? You said the bike ran great at one point, but did it always smoke like that?
And, did you try the FPR test?
Have you pulled the plugs and looked at them since replacing them?

The oil still looked fresh when I drained it and just put new oil in it like I said I had it sit for to long started it up with old gas in it when I was at my storage locker brought it home rode it to the gas station put new gas in mixed with the old but they wasn't much at all my low fuel light came on before the gas station then drive it home parked it then the next day boom. It was hard to start and smoked and rough idle till 3k plus. So took it to a shop fresh oil fresh plugs had them try to figure it out they dunno cause it doesn't throw any codes. I'm gonna pull the plugs again this weekend when I get time to work on it but I'm out of ideas I'm thinking its with the fuel. It's like it's running way to lean or something? Any ideas what it might be
