Motorcycle Repair: Compression, 1977 kawasaki kz750, internet message boards


Question
I picked up an old 1977 Kawasaki KZ750 and I measured around 120 psi in each cylinder. What should I expect?

Answer
Hi Richard,

120 lbs between the cylinders is not bad. I cannot remember what the exact specs. Try looking on internet message boards dedicated to the KZ750's and in the service manual for details.

You should be fine with those figures.

Respectfully,
Mark Shively
