Good job. The compression isn't that bad considering they were cold - remember you have a motor with a few miles on it. Your valves don't look bent to me.

I don't know what bike you have, but on GS450's from the early 80's it is 18 chain pins from the top of each cam sprocket for the correct timing. Make sure your arrows on the sprockets are pointing to the cam gasket surface and that your TDC marks are correct after removing the side cover on your engine. If you don't have one already I suggest getting a Clymers manual for your bike. They walk you through everything with pictures.
Good luck.
