I'd be playing on the safe side and suggesting 80 odd miles.

Have you checked for leaks? Did you guess at half a tank from the gauge or from looking in the tank. My boys ped had one of the worst gauges I've known.

happen to know colour of spark plug? might be over fuelling and could possibly as ichy said, be leaking.
That is excessively low mpg..

No idea why you're getting so little mileage but have you checked your tickover speed? I guess an issue with your carb could also cause higher fuel consumption?

ms51ves3: why does it need 500 miles? Are you teaching it how to be a piston?

speedfight 2 speedos only go to 50mph so where u getting 55mph from?
it cant do 55mph..and even if it could you would blow it pretty quick..

Why dont you just save your pennies tuning etc.. and just buy a 125...
