Does This Just Sound Like Condensation On My Bike?

Haven't rode my bike in three days due to the fact that I am awaiting a few parts (fairings) to come back from the body shop.

Anyway, today I was thoroughly cleaning it and checking everything and I fired it up.

When it's sitting there idling, it is doing great but when I reved it up, there was a LITTLE bit of smoke that came out the exhaust. Only when reving it. Barely any though. Not huge puffs or anything like that. I could barely see it and I was about two feet away.

So I shut it off and checked some things. Oil level is perfect and nice color and texture to it, the antifreeze in the radiator is filled up to the top (no leaking or losing anything) and the overflow bottle is good. Took the cap off and no bubbles there.

The bike runs perfect, performance is incredible and I was just wondering if this is condensation or what. The smell by the exhaust doesn't have any specific scent to it. Just smells like normal exhaust if I could say so myself.

2004 Yamaha R6. Thanks in advice.
 
There is no 100% way to be sure, but your condensation idea sounds like the most logical explanation. My Buell does the same thing, especially in cold weather, and there isn't any coolant in there to begin with.
