quick compression question

[quads14589]

im lookin at the banshee for sale, the guy says when you go to kick start it there is no compression in the top end because it doesnt give you a fight, so does it mean its time for new pistons or just rings?

[ZeroLogic]

May need rings, may be a kick starter problem.

[martimatt550]

could be both, my banshee ran on a melted right piston before my rebuild. only a real compression test will tell you where to start:D

Get the compression testor and do it right. If low I'd go with a new top end kit. Bore & hone too!
