-Always give year, make, engine size and model # when asking questions. 2 & 4 stroke engines can have similar symtoms needing different repairs.
-I'll answer as if your bike is a 4 stroke.
-If you just re-did the top end, then it's possible that the ring end gaps have lined up (the end gaps should be staggered to prevent oil from getting by and burning along with the fuel).
-The oil rings are so thin, they're easy to snag and bend.
-If you determine that the smoke is from oil burning, then you should re-do the top end.
-As long as the top end is apart, change the valve guide seals.

Black smoke means that the fuel/air mixture is too rich.
Blue smoke means that oil is betting burned.
White smoke means that coolant is getting into the combustion chambers.
It needs to go back to the mechamic.

Change oil filter. Check to make sure you used the proper oil for you particular make/model of bike.

it may be as simple as changing the oil and filter...if that don`t work you will have to get new ring`s for the piston
