Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.

I don't know much about the TS bikes,but I can tell you that my 75 Yamaha DT175 has one oil line that feeds in the side of the cylinder,my 76 DT175 had one oil line that fed in the side of carb,the Yamaha RD250 I had fed one oil line in each carb. So the Yamaha's were designed to run more or less on premix,I believe the TS250 has two oil lines feeding the engine,one for the cylinder and one for the main bearing, I don't remember how Kawasaki was oiled.
