Compression Ratio (18.36 + 249)/18.36 = 14.56

Bit high I think..

If.. it was cut to 1.25mm as requested the ratio would down to 13.93:1 ...which is where my old 2010 was set. Last bike was 13.2:1

So so so.. Where to from here.
Mine went down to TSP twice as well.

Also, after you rip the 5mm thick gasket, check the retainer nut on the PV actuator rod thingy - mine had backed out all the way down the thread.

My 300 is running just under 1mm so that is fine, can take out of chamber to reduce ratio to where you need it which is lower.

Ended up doing the round trip down and back. I haven't cc'd the head and don't think I'll bother working out the comp ratio.

Squish clearance has now been opened up to 1.26mm at the edge, coming across to 1.36mm on the inside. Much better.

I can't believe I still haven't started her yet..

Head is bolted back on..
Carb has been gone through, lil tweak to the floats but pretty good out of the box. 42 NEDW#2 175. Replaced cap bolts with allen heads. Number 7 slide with no notch. Back in the bike and ready to rock.

Pulled the guts out of the cannon of an exhaust. Interestingly no spark arrestor at all. Just a long small ID straight through muffler. Was going to take a few inches out of it, but would have required a bit more work than I could be bothered with for probably minimal reward. Put it back together for now.
