Current draw oddity

I built a motor (44 turn w/ 30 AWG, neo mags, plain old solid bearings) that pulls .089 amps (No load). I tested it right, it was tested by 3 different people, and it comes out to between .08 and .10 amps regardless. Since a s2 motor pulls like 35 hundredths, with 3 more winds and smaller wire, why's this one so... odd? The DMM is connected in series (like it should be), and works perfectly (Reads about .35 amps on a s2). I'm definately not an exceptionally proficient motor builder, so what could the problem be? I'm fairly certain that can't be correct, and I dont wanna risk a perfectly good board to see if it's ok.
