XT600E 120psi cylinder compression
Done a test today due to the engine cutting out under load and it's 30psi down.
What is a 30 psi drop likely to be?
Just valve clearances? I can't check because I've lost my feeler gauges. I'll buy a new set tomorrow.
A bent valve? I did drown the bike on a river crossing about 3 months before it started playing up, sucked water into the engine.
Piston Rings? It does use oil as every large bore single cylinder does, but it's not smoking.
Any other ideas?
Thanks for any advice.
