Could be a couple of things. First do a compression check on both the cylinders you should be above 125psi. Some times if the motor is started and shut off a bunch of times without letting it warm up to temp that kind of thing happens also.

If it sat all summer and this is the first start, that is normal for most sleds.
Get it up to temp, run and it will go away.

You might want to check the bolts that attach the y-pipe to the cylinders and the doughnut between the y-pipe and exhaust pipe. With the issues that were mentioned in the other replies this is where the oil/fuel will leak out and make a mess. Once it is warmed up and ridden it should burn most of this off but there will still be some residue.
