depends on static CR, cam, making sure carb is wide open (i checked mine with the throttle cracked wide open, i got it a tad higher with the carb removed).

with the W6 i was over 200psi. figured i was gonna eat a starter sooner or later. its much easier starting with the w8

I am 9.5 to 1 I think-- on this motor it might be 10 to 1 I can find my piston receipt and I cant remember but it was fairly close ------------if the cc of the head is right it should be a little short but not less than stock.I dont eat starters much but sure do eat solenoids and relays .

Varies from bike to bike and test procedures....even is good, as long as its not too low.
