Default Lakota compression check

Can anyone tell me what the factory compresion is supposed to be on a 99 Lakota. It runs some times and back fires others. It only have about 56 pounds of compression. I assume this is low, but my Honda rubicon only has 30 lbs, and the factory manual says that is the range for the Honda. Any help would be great. Thanks

hmmm,
you mean 156 and 130, respectively, right? 165 to 185 is darn good, 156 is a little low, but no real issue

backfires are either timing or fuel, 99% to be too rich

the lakota is my favorite bike, i ONLY have 4 is my string.

if you mean 156, compression isn't your issue, if 56, you need a rebuild, but it wouldn't start
