| Generally 5 psi is needed. The piston needs to be at BDC to allow the transfer ports to link the cylinder bore and the crank case. The bleed down rate should not exceed 1psi per minute. |

| I just did a topend job on a 03 YZ125 last week. It started out at 115 lbs. before the topend and after break-in it went to 145 lbs. |

| "It started out at 115 lbs. before the topend and after break-in it went to 145 lbs." Thats not much pressure for a new bike. My 84 yz250 had 150 lbs. when I first put the rings in, now its got 165 lbs. |

| Iv'e seen 125's with 200+lbs, but I guess that 125 is stock. And my 250 is 20 years old! but I guess people that ride 125's are too light to kick over a high compression bike? |

| I can kick over my friend's CRF450R easy. Hot or cold. |

| why do you ride a 125 then, wouldn't you rather have a bike that lasts longer and has more power? |
