Not really too concerned. I used to race dirt bikes and I remember that if the bike ran too rich it would foul plugs so I wanted to make sure I'm not being too heavy handed with the oil. But I'd always rather be on the side of a bit too much oil than not enough.... thanks for the advice! Much appreciated50:1 is the mix ratio,----Why does the bit of smoke at start up concern you ?
