I have 2 Rs both with the same motors built by the same guy with the same parts but in one of them has an issue.both motors are fairly new but heres the odd part. one recently began feeling like when i kick it, it feels like very low compression but still fires in about 2 kicks and runs like a raped ape the exact same as it always has and runs side by side with the other one. what could be the issue here please help im stumped the only difference with the motor now and brand new is when kicking it.

only way to know fo sho is to get out the compression gauge and give it a check.

ahhh. your just imaging things. But you do know that they might be a little easier to start when warm rite? cause if you kick one over warm, and go kick the other cold, you could prolly feel a difference.

It runs like a raped ape. Check.
Starts in 2 kicks. Check.
Makes good compression. Check.

Sounds like you're trying to fix problems that aren't there.

More riding, less worrying.;)
