Left cylinder melt down!

Recently did the top end on my 07, did compression test and it was around 85. Guy I bought it from must have been in the top end because the ring end gap was huge! ran fine after top end was done but noticed the left pipe was hotter then right side. All of a sudden the bike lost power and started knocking. This is what I found (pic)

I'm new to the banshee world but have rebuilt many 2 strokes. Bought bike with TORS removed, idle screw kit installed, K&N open box intake, twist grip throttle, park brake removed

 

-New rings, wrist pins, bearings and Pistons.

-ring end gap within spec

-cylinder bor with in spec

-crank well within spec

-leak down was good

-cleaned carbs

-sync carbs by eye

Was waiting to break it in to do a compression test but that ship has sailed! Why was the left side running so much hotter? Air screws were adjusted the same.

 

Thanks in advance.
