The key to keeping exhaust smell off your clothes is to wear a riding suit over your street clothes.

Re dizzy,
1) Are you riding in dense stop-and-go city traffic or out on country lanes? If in the city, the smell on your clothes is likely from other vehicles unless your bike is modified to run overly rich for "performance."

2) Does your bike have a low fairing or windshield to allow fresh air into the helmet?

3) Does your helmet have vent openings to bring in fresh air?
