RIVA (or anyone)... Does anyone there know how to convert "compression ratio" into psi? Is there a mathmatical formula?

The 15f has a compression ratio of 10.6:1 ...so what psi Should I be seeing if I were doing a compression test???

Thanks

Sorry, but I can't help you with that one. I'd have to research it. Have you tried 'Googling' it?

Are the Kawasaki 15F's really so reliable that no one has ever brought theirs in to have it worked on? :/<:

From what I understand, doing a compression check is one of the first things to be done by the mechanic when there is a problem...?

Has anyone ever done a compression check on Kawasaki 15F???

Confused

as far as i know there is no mathamatical equation because the psi depends on revs and valve overlap
most compresion checks are to check that all cylinders are close not for working out what fuel to run
