Sounds like you got it right. If you didn't put new rings in then your numbers are a correction factor off, i.e.: right on the money. If you did put new rings in, you need to break the engine in and allow the new rings to seat before you test their sealing capabilities.
The engine only has about 16 hours on it. I was only able to ride enough last season to break it in really.
