    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

im gonna check the comopression on my bike and i heard from sombody that it has to be at at least 120 LBS. Is this on both cylinders?

Thanks,
Kitten Tooth
 
I'm guessing that answer is yes.....

Please, please, please put what bike you have in your signature line. With 70 posts you should know that by now.:rolleyes:

User CP, edit signature.:)

No Darling, we prefer the compression on the second cylinder to be at least 2 1/2 times as strong as on the first :D

Compression should be roughly the same on both. Much less than 90 psi won't work very well, and they should be roughly within 10% of each other.

But a much better measure is a leakdown test. Anything over 4% and you have a nice garden ornament :D
 
IM SO SORRY, i did the quote thing and it didn't work so i think i did it wrong. The bike is a 1982 GS300L
 
no acctually, looks alright to me now
