Hey guys im kind of new to the banshee world. So i bought a banshee. It ran fine for a while then i let my cousin borrow it and he blew the piston (wont do that again).so i just replaced the topend on it. I got it bored to 65.5. I put wisco 795 pistons in it and i got a coolhead from jeff over at fastracing. I did a leak down test and it took 2 hours for the gauge to go from 6 psi to 0 psi. So then i did a compression test. On the left cylinder i got 125 psi and on the right side i got 145 psi. My question is why do i have differnt readings between the 2 cylinders. I haven't even started the bike up yet.
