bike wont start after washing.
well i left my bike siting for about 2 or 3 weeks. i started it up and moved it about 15 ft to where i was going to wash it. i went ahead and cleaned it. tried to start it up again but i wouldnt crank. its clicking over but it wont start. also white smoke is coming out of the tail pipe. it was running fine before i put it in the garage. 2 days ago i cranked it and let it idle for about 15 minutes and it idled fine. i didnt take it out or anything though. the battery has 13 volts so i dont think its dead. any ideas would be great.

That makes no sense.. sounds like you need to take the bike to a reputable mechanic. Also i've never said it was a good idea to start a bike(or car, anything with a motor really...) for a few seconds then kill it, even if you idle it for 15min then kill it. Take her for a ride and blow out the cobwebs!
