Default KFX 700

I have a new KFX 700 and have a few questions ,one problem
problem - riding a long wheelie ,mile 50 to 60 mph or so the oil from the motor enters t he carbs , blue smoke, fouled plugs . has anyone had this problem ? - no i did not overfill the crankcase , yes i have lowered the level.yes i am bummed. does anyone have the answer

pipes - what is the best pipe for the power- not worried about sound, price - although it is hard to cough up 700 bones for 3 to 5 hp.
drop in cams, clutchkit, re-jet - ?? who has the best -
would like it faster on top end - but wou like it still reliable /ride

I've never had a problem with oil in the carbs, but of course, I've never rode a wheelie longer than a mile...

As far as Exhaust go, Muzzy supposedly makes the most power, although it's only a single. Most people go with the HMF's as they do well and are about the cheapest for a set of Dual's. The Yoshi duals are about the same as the HMF's, maybe a little more, but cost alot more.

oil is not the only consideration here. Is this FI? or carburated? See where I am coming from? If carburated on long stand ups, the floats are out of whack. Plus, oil starvation can occur depending on the pump and pan configuration.
