If it has a separate oil tank, put the oil in the oil tank. That's what the oil tank is intended for.
(The carburetor can adjust the mixture according to throttle (underpressure) and rpm. With the oil in the petrol tank it's a constant mixture, sometimes too much, sometimes not sufficient.)

The ZX 50 / Fever is a 2 stroke (->manual!)
The 2 stroke oil tank is usually located high and can drop into the carburetor,
the 4 stroke engine oil sump below the engine, dispersed by dunking crankshaft and/or additional oil pump.
