I was thinking that's due to being oriented vertically and possibly oil accumulating in the crankcase without the leaner ratio. Still surprised at the amount they reduced it to.
Did you notice the back wheels in the 500 Twin picture? That's the picture that inspired me to swap the rear wheels on my Supreme.

fuel tank and run until the carby is dry.

so does this mean it's bad for a two stroke to run out of fuel while running?

Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
