    so i finally did a compression test with the following results cylinder1:140psi, cylinder2:100psi,cylinder3:125psi cylinder4:130psi. im not sure what to make of the result, the standard from the manual is 130-185psi with a limit of 100psi and a difference of less than 30. does anyone think this could be the reason its only running on two cylinders

      No. All those cylinders should fire. It's something else.

        somewhat large diff between #2 and other cylinders aside...

        if you have spark and if you have fuel with those compression numbers the bike should run
        ok, maybe rough only, but all the cylinders should fire

        now, how did you warm up the engine to do the compression check if two cylinders are NOT working ?

        maybe a time to repeat saying what exactly the symptoms are (cause everything posted above doesnt make sense when put together)
