Like the ride to nowhere. I get on my bike in the morning and just ride. No telling where I will Go or stop just like to ride I feel free at peace. When I am riding, I can only go 1 day. Maybe I have to ride my bike. No music, no headphones, just the sound of my Harley davidson sports Richard.😊
Well that's using the ol' noggin! That was a pretty good solution for your kicker bike compression test. Now , I think if anyone were to be staring it would be because a woman was stopped on the side of the road working on her motorcycle. You don't see that every day lol. Glad your bike passed the compression test, now get to riding that bike and stay safe in your beautiful B.C.! Peace
Great job Angel. Just a side note though, in most engines, with the exception of some (very few) variable compression ratio engines, your compression ratio is a fixed value and never changes unless you change some components in the engine. You can’t really work it out from compression pressure results, at best you’ll only get an educated guess. There are too many variables that affect your compression pressures, such as worn rings, leaking valves or gaskets etc. which is what you’re really checking for when you do a compression test such as you have done here. The main thing to look for is even compression between cylinders, which yours seem to be fairly even. As for the actual pressure reading, I’d say yours are fairly normal for the type of engine you’re testing, i.e. your engine would appear to be in fairly reasonable condition. I hope that makes sense ❤
That’s a great way to check compression 👍 advantage Clifton, Red, If you had any more compression it would be even harder to start , that was fun to watch, reminds me of all the old fords burning past my place
You did a great job, I'm proud of you, not every girl will do this. (In order not to block the rear wheel, there are also third and fourth gears - they have gear ratios that make it easy to turn the rear wheel. The second gear is only suitable for starting the engine from a run-up)
Angel, do you know sbout leak-down tests? Basically a compression test in reverse. Instead of measuring the engine's ability to create pressure, compressed air is introduced into the cylinder through the spark plug hole. Where you hear air leaking out tells you everything you need to know: Noise from the top end indicates valves, below indicates rings, etc. Anyway, "Hillbilly brainsorm!" Hilarious!
well angel looks like i wont meat you in creston for , shovelfest , just like an old shovel , sometimes we need a little work , 65 years still ticken ,, have a great weekend , been hot , so sun screen , keep the shiny side up and the rubber down , hope for another chase , your a true rider
Angel,, you’re alright darlin! Amazingly Beautiful and very Smart! Thank you for sharing your love through that ole Stroker,, just makes it even better 🌹
That's good static compression for a motor with a performance cam. The valve overlap in a long duration performance cam bleeds compression off. Your cylinder readings are close together, which is exactly what you want to see.
Red, A couple of obvious comments...Doing that test at dusk is pretty damn dangerous...with no lights...people coming home from work, tired, not paying attention, maybe half in the bag...The world is a much cooler place with you in it. Just saying...My second thought comes from being a veteran of many attempts at starting a bike by rolling it down a hill. If it doesn't start, now you are at the bottom of a hill with a non running bike that you probably have to push back up the hill. That is when you really appreciate how heavy your bike is.
Well, I can't really disagree about it being a little (or pretty) dangerous in the dark. And the hill thing, I've definitely been there done that lol. However! This is a really long hill and its easy to build plenty of speed for a bomb start lol.
Thank You Red, I just got back to the camper from the weirdest "poker run" all day ride I ever had and I come across your video. No, sorry my old Goldwing is sadly not a kick start but tuning and syncing four carbs is a lot of fun! This spring's compression testing went very well for me but nothing like yours after I replaced the timing belt. As for the envious people of your neighborhood? They were admiring a beautiful young lady with admirable mechanical skills. The men were wishing they had a woman like you to help them maintain their vehicles or just do it for their inept butts. As for the ladies they were wishing they looked half as good as you and were a third as competent at wrenching. Now, please do not ever put down what you do! The idea and the method are sound and worked well, so nothing else matters. With Love and Respect, You are in my prayers Hoka Hey
Good morning 🌅, Angel, I hope you are all doing great on that Hillbilly compression test, it’s all down Hill from then on, 😂, great results, I think the results are very good, I done a compression testing on my bike , the first time I forgot to open the throttle, old dude brain 🧠 was not firing on all 2 cylinders, 😂 , you think you have problems remember at your young age, you wait until you get older, it’s all down Hill from now on, 😂, especially when Brian is not firing on all four cylinders, stay safe, France I think 🤔,
@@RedRiderCanadaBC It is great to have a laugh and a joke and banter with somebody, though you are around the other side of the pond, especially you being so young, , Stay Safe , Ride Free, Ride With The Wind, Ride Free As A Bird 🦅, France
I need to find a long enough hill around here, I like the idea. My cam has a lot of overlap and bleeds off too quick with the kick starter for an impressive reading. Thanks for the tip cute friend!
i would be more than pleased with the results and both pots v' close in readings. where are all these people staring, calm down; what is worthy of comment is there's a biker by the side of the road, wrenching on the motor and no one stops to see if they can help ! i know these modern metrics rarely break down so bikers are getting out of the habit of stopping, but don't be that person, just sayin'.
Man, that was a great idea, I never would've thought of that! Luckily for me I have electric start in addition to the kicker, and that served me well a couple of weeks ago when I did mine and got 151 and 149. I also did a leak down test, the results of which were 98% and 97%. From what I can tell, that's VERY good, because apparently anything less than 5% leakage is race engine specs. Also, what kind of heads are those? Mine are S&S, but only single plug. My engine's only 93 inches, though, and the heads aren't shiny and polished like yours. Yours look like they're maybe STD or something. Good video, and love the outtakes!
IIRC: On a car engine, you remove all the spark plugs, block the throttle plate open, and crank the motor over a few revolutions. Seems to me, if you pull both plugs, lock your throttle open, and kick it, you should get similar results...
They’re staring because you’re attractive and turning your own wrenches..:) That in itself is smoking Hot and very rare these days! Nice bike,good work on the test and awesome job on the video I loved it! Makes me think of that old country song. “She don’t know she’s beautiful”. 👍🏻
One thing to note about compression tests. Even if you get equal/close to equal readings, sometimes on four cycle engines a leak down test is the most accurate means of drawing a big picture in engine condition, possible issues. For the average person, a compression test is good enough.
I am really impressed at how you got all that done before it got too late in the evening, it looks like a lot of work just to get your camera(s) set up in all the different positions to succeed in really showing how to properly get a compression test done. So many times myself and buddys in the past just gave up on that bc of erroneous readings bc we were just kickin em. Thanks for this very informative video, I just wish I wasn't pnly 145 lbs. soakin wet, many times trying to jump start Shovelheads I've had they just skidded down the hill to a stop bc I guess they had too much compression for my lightweight ass to get em turnin over enough to ignite my cylinders!!!
Be proud Angel, You qualify for a Hillbilly Gold Card ! Like you say, it works ! Note about racy cams, they generally will result in a lower compression reading than the same engine with a stock cam. This is because the racy cam will hold the intake valve open longer, thus closing later as the piston is coming up on the compression stroke. Cheers !
Cool test...👍🤠 And if no one has said it yet, then I will.😎 Try not to remove spark plugs on a hot engine. There is a lousy chance of unscrewing them along with the thread...
when doing kick start tests for compression i remove all plugs and remove the carb you just kick untill the needle no longer rises done 3 times this gives you average i then add a table spoon of oil to each cylinder and do again if it increases then can be worn rings it if does not then it can be poorly adjusted valves or badly seated valves
You mentioned you didn't have a good way of lifting your bike. If you have an engine hoist and ratchet tie downs you can do about any thing. Lift the front to remove a front tire . Remove the seat and lift using the subframe to remove the rear tire. You will need to chock the wheel on the ground and use 2 ratchet straps to keep the bike from swaying. I had a Honda 1100 shadow. The local stealership wanted 7 hours labor to Remove the rear tire and drive shaft to change the fuel filter located at the back of the rear cylinder. I lifted the front way u p with the engine hoist and had the filter changed in 15 minutes. I currently have a triumph sprint nothing exhaust under the bike. So I lift the front. The rear I just use the center stand.
Ох эти скандинавские женщины.. Do not burn your fingers, always use only normal gloves with closed fingers.. Judging by the pressure gauge readings, the compression ratio is good. If the readings were low, then it would be necessary to conduct a second test - pour some engine oil into the cylinders (If the indicators increase significantly, then there is wear on the piston rings. If the readings practically do not change, then you can pay attention to the tightness of the intake and exhaust valves. (Only it is better to carry out such a check in third gear).
I would like to ask you a question if you don't mind. I have these same dual Dyna coils like you are running on your shovel, but where did you find the mounting bracket to mount yours at the top engine bracket between the cylinders like you have them? Thanks for any help
Outside the capitol city in Heaven,there is a big Park,in the park is a fountain,it has the best beer you ever drank coming out of it,all the bikers in heaven go there,remember I told you about it...
My 79, 80ci shovelhead has 115 psi on front 120 psi rear not sure if it has a cam, probably not because it's not that fast. Is this normal compression for a shovelhead? My evo softail has 150- 145 psi . My evo bagger with cam , high compression pistons and ported heads has 190 psi .
I'm not going to disagree with you about being a hillbilly test lol but it worked right ,What was wrong with the trany the other day? HAVE A GREAT DAY.

@@RedRiderCanadaBCokay Angel maybe I'm just too old too understand the new verbiage these days, but please explain what was meant by "premier announcement". Does not every video need a title, if that is what the respondent is referring to and if so I thought your video was both informative for those who didn't know the easiest way of performing the task at hand and cute as usual the way you don't hide anything, sometimes struggle to get through it but always find a way to complete what you set out to accomplish and even make fun of yourself while doing so. Most men would be to arrogant to include that part or the goofing around that you do while making your videos, for instance...why am I talking this way doo-di-doo...shut up Angel...LOL, that's what makes your videos yours, you're having fun doing the mandatory doing a fantastic job at it I must say. I knew after stumbling across your channel shortly after you first started that both because of the content which was you attempting to Kickstart from coldstart showing the proper procedures and explaining why for each primer kick, finding TDC, and etc to finally turning on the ignition switch and then watching the walk around video showing all of the custom parts that you and the EOT had built for your bike being a 72 Shovelhead owner myself that I had to subscribe right then and have tried to watch every video since, gone into the library and watched everyone of them at least once, had numerous conversations with you about concerns with mine since they're both 96 CU/IN S&S Strokers. You're a very sincere younger woman that was raised with respect and that shines through in your personality and I don't think that there's one of us old timers that have been with you from the start that would have any problems standing up for you anywhere anytime. I know that I can get long winded but it's for a reason if this guys comment means what I think it does, and I could be wrong because of the verbiage, if you're not able too remove subscribers from your channel is there a way to block that subscribers notifications to your channel if he doesn't unclick the bell like he states? BTW, Those compression numbers looked great, well within the 10% cylinder variation for multiple cylinders without Competition Cams. If you were much higher than 150psi, I'm not too sure that you'd be enjoying or able to Kickstart it without installing a compression release system and you definitely don't want to do that on those brite and shiny cylinder heads. Are those double plug heads and are they S&S or a different manufacturer? I'm considering doing a refresh on mine this winter. Anyway keep the throttle twisted and the rubber side down! TX Ted 72 Shovelhead
@@teddysickels1857 Hey Ted, thank you so much for support! I really appreciate all my loyal viewers like you 😊 So, what he means by "premier announcement clogging up his feed" is the fact that the premier was advertised before the the video is actually viewable, so you see the thumbnail in your feed before you can actually watch the video... I guess that's annoying to some people. But I've only done a couple premiers on my channel and have heard that they are good for getting traffic... I am not sure if that's true or not, but I wanted to give it a try and see for myself. Anyway, to answer your question about my heads: yes, they are dual plug heads, and they are S&S.

Yeah you might be the first young lady to do that but been there before 😮

HILLBILLY 4LIFE! FAK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First
It seems to be a trend to plug up everyone's feed with premier announcements so it's now ok to unclick the bell
Lol this is literally the second or third premier I’ve done in the entire life of my channel
@@RedRiderCanadaBCokay Angel maybe I'm just too old too understand the new verbiage these days, but please explain what was meant by "premier announcement". Does not every video need a title, if that is what the respondent is referring to and if so I thought your video was both informative for those who didn't know the easiest way of performing the task at hand and cute as usual the way you don't hide anything, sometimes struggle to get through it but always find a way to complete what you set out to accomplish and even make fun of yourself while doing so. Most men would be to arrogant to include that part or the goofing around that you do while making your videos, for instance...why am I talking this way doo-di-doo...shut up Angel...LOL, that's what makes your videos yours, you're having fun doing the mandatory doing a fantastic job at it I must say. I knew after stumbling across your channel shortly after you first started that both because of the content which was you attempting to Kickstart from coldstart showing the proper procedures and explaining why for each primer kick, finding TDC, and etc to finally turning on the ignition switch and then watching the walk around video showing all of the custom parts that you and the EOT had built for your bike being a 72 Shovelhead owner myself that I had to subscribe right then and have tried to watch every video since, gone into the library and watched everyone of them at least once, had numerous conversations with you about concerns with mine since they're both 96 CU/IN S&S Strokers. You're a very sincere younger woman that was raised with respect and that shines through in your personality and I don't think that there's one of us old timers that have been with you from the start that would have any problems standing up for you anywhere anytime. I know that I can get long winded but it's for a reason if this guys comment means what I think it does, and I could be wrong because of the verbiage, if you're not able too remove subscribers from your channel is there a way to block that subscribers notifications to your channel if he doesn't unclick the bell like he states?
BTW, Those compression numbers looked great, well within the 10% cylinder variation for multiple cylinders without Competition Cams. If you were much higher than 150psi, I'm not too sure that you'd be enjoying or able to Kickstart it without installing a compression release system and you definitely don't want to do that on those brite and shiny cylinder heads. Are those double plug heads and are they S&S or a different manufacturer? I'm considering doing a refresh on mine this winter.
Anyway keep the throttle twisted and the rubber side down!

@@teddysickels1857 Hey Ted, thank you so much for support! I really appreciate all my loyal viewers like you 😊
So, what he means by "premier announcement clogging up his feed" is the fact that the premier was advertised before the the video is actually viewable, so you see the thumbnail in your feed before you can actually watch the video... I guess that's annoying to some people. But I've only done a couple premiers on my channel and have heard that they are good for getting traffic... I am not sure if that's true or not, but I wanted to give it a try and see for myself.
Anyway, to answer your question about my heads: yes, they are dual plug heads, and they are S&S.
I'm going to be an old, mean grumbler again! But.. Who invented gloves with short fingers at all? Apparently this man was not in the army and he doesn't care about his fingertips. Angel, take care of yourself, red-haired girl with blue eyes and fingers in oil from an old motorcycle - out of 8 billion people, you are the only one.
But what if you want to pick your nose while you are riding your bike!? 😂
@@RedRiderCanadaBC Then leave your left little finger for that. Поковыряться в носу- это святое дело:)) Главное, чтоб не за столом, а то можно от отца подзатыльник получить 😂
