I found on a 100cc, petrol looper, very over square, cylinder with .85mm squish clearance, running circa 155 lbs compression on a good rope pull, I was burning synthetic lube oil, causing a carbon build up on the piston crown (showing the transfer port direction/swirl, almost perfectly).
After 4 or 5 hours running at full tilt there was enough build up on the piston, to touch the cylinder head, which I felt was not a very confortable situation.
Perhaps you should try lowering in 10 thou steps until your happy.
