sounds like a valve problem to me. if it was rings or piston, it should be doing it "to some extent" all the time. But if the valves seep while it's parked, it could blow some out and once you run it awhile, or if it's only parked a few hours, or overnight it might not leak down as bad. What scoot is this happening on?

i hate to say this but it dose'nt really matter what any of us here thinks because we'd all be guessing. what it really comes down to is this, the motor needs to be taken apart to really detirmine what is the problem. since you got to take it apart to fix it anyway it makes sense just to tear it apart instead of guessing.

put off the valve cover , run it ,see if the valve area is filling up with oil. if so it's a cloged drain hole
