From what I've heard you need to torque down to specs to get a true squish measurement

[@HTMR]

That would be true for a non o-ring gasket head since the gasket compresses. In my case, the head was metal to metal against the cylinder.

Hi Matthew, love the videos! Can I ask for a favor? Can you half the volume of the intro, it wakes up the baby everytime one of your video starts to play from my playlist! Thanks.

[@HTMR]

LOL ok no prob

[@TheBookaroo]

@@HTMR Thank you, it's perfect in the next video!

[@joshf8097]

First comment. Love it. Thanks for the videos man

[@charliecharliecharliecharl8554]

I learnt something I never seen this do you have to do that on every bike

[@HTMR]

Only if you want to squeeze a bit more performance out of it.

[@niccoloalbani6822]

why didn't you put head o rings? they interfere with the squish measurement

[@HTMR]

No they don't, they squish down, so no point of installing them

[@niccoloalbani6822]

@@HTMR ok, thanks!

[@scott2495]

my cr 125 uses the metal shim cylinder head gasket. Am i ok to use an old gasket rather then wasting money on a new one to measure squish clearances?

[@HTMR]

I would say yes.

[@mattiashagg7496]

what thickness of solder?

[@HTMR]

Rosin core about 3/32" (.093")

[@mattiashagg7496]

@@HTMR Does it work if I have 3 mm wire?
will install vhm which will have squish size 1 mm.

[@joshf8097]

Whats uuup???

[@brianpriest7000]

What a waste of solder

[@quinten250]
