Common problem after being sit for yonks. Cold starts also causes it smoke, all bikes do it on cold mornings e.t.c. Have you tried changing your oil?

Also could i add, what colour smoke is it?

It's a 2-stroke. It smokes because it doesn't burn pure petrol but a mix of 2-stroke oil and petrol, this provides the lubrication in place of a sump so there is no oil to change.

Remember you need to keep topping up the oil and if you don't you will destroy your engine.
