compression #'s and engine temp

[jabberjoe87]

yea i think this winter i'm gonna do rings and hone and redo the valves to make sure they seal and sit properly with the bike the way it is syncing the carbs is worthless. The funny thing is since its a suzuki it starts up fine runs fine and still rips

I went on a 450km ride a little while back and kept the engine at 7-9000 rpm+ for 100+ km's. Could my valves have sunken into the head from the abuse I put it through, causing the lower compression?

That's not abuse. That normal daily operation, the bikes love that.
Abuse is letting it sit for twenty years.

Yes! Exactly!!!
