Default Need some help or advice 2006 Rancher

Hey everyone, this afternoon my sons 2006 Rancher started smoking very bad. Just at idle its not that bad, but when you rev it up it really smokes. Always used honda oil and changed every 500 miles. It has 2000 miles on it now, never had a problem with it or any of my hondas. It runs just like it did when new but now have this problem. Also just had the valves adjusted by my Honda dealer. Any advice or help with what is wrong or I need to do? Thanks.

x2 rebuild the top end. put some new rings in it and change the gaskets and all. check to see if there is any play between the piston and cylinder too. if the cylinder is out of round or scorned up too bad you might have to get it bored and put an oversized piston in it.
