Hi all.
I've been trying to find a compression tester that will fit the CBR250RR spark plug holes. I think it needs a 10mm connection to fit. Does anyone have one that I could borrow, or point me in the right direction to buy one.
I've felt for a while now that the bike isn't quite running at 100%, and it doesn't idle like it used to, and it misses a lot down low. I've just stripped the bike down to check the valve clearances (all still within operating limits). Checked the A/F ratio screws all fine. Will strip and clean the carbs to be sure. So the last thing to check is the compression.
Another thing it could be is electronic. Either leads or rectifier, or something like that. It's only at low rpm though thankfully, and it does seem to be intermittent, although nearly all the time now it will miss at low rpm. Not good, cause I'm going to be selling up soon.
