    Compression test

    I just did a compression test on my 82 GS1100GL and got 140psi on #1, 145psi on #2, 145psi on #3, and 140 psi on #4. I bought a complete gasket kit on ebay and am getting ready to replace the gaskets and was wondering how my compression stacks up to normal. If that seems low now would be the time to replace/check the rings & valves. What does everyone think?

    If it's not leaking oil leave it alone. The numbers are good.

        Yes, it is leaking oil I think from the bottom end so I will have to replace the lower gaskets. I will leave the upper end alone. Thanks.
