Recommended Posts

i checked my compression today in my freshly rebuilt motor it still has the stock head on it and i got a even 150psi in each cylinder unless the head has been milled before i thought they were stock 130psi? any1 got any thoughts? the compression test was done with the bike cold and throttle wide open

are you sure your compression tester is accurate , maybe borrow a friends tester and check again , i just rebuilt my motor and it had 138 in each cylinder with a stock head and wiesco pistons and i thought that was a little high .

Hmmm, not by much, last time I did a rebuild my Actron read 130 even, then after break in, and few months it only read 125, and it's been there ever since.

mmmmmmm making me wonder if the head has been milled before. The compression tester i was using isnt a cheap one its a snap on one and i know its pretty accurate
