Hi all,
My name is Ben, I am a total bike noob. So here to get some advice and learn about bikes through the collected wisdom of you guys.
Bought a yamaha xvs dragstar 125 in may as a little workshop project. Turns out the previous owner lied to me regarding its condition and the bike is a non runner.
Zero compression in either cylinder. So tonight I will be starting the strip down and to try locate the problem. Will begin with a few drops of oil into the barrels to rule out worn rings. From there on out its going to be blind leading the blind a bit. Valve timing check is next I guess?
Anyway, looking forward to meeting you all. Your help and guidance will be most appreciated!
Cheers lads and lasses
