How much compression should I have on a '99 Scrambler 500 engine? I did a check and I am only pulling 80-85lbs, is this ok? I am used to 2 strokes pulling 150lbs plus.

Thanks

Never mind my compression, my guage only reads 85 on my ski which I know is 170lbs so it must be bad. What is the correct reading supposed to be for my bike?
