This years motor has 14.5 to 1 compression and 30 more degrees duration in the cam, than last years 12 to 1 motor.
Should I be worried about the high number?
Holy smokes Art, last time I had that Crank Pressure was on a flat track bike that broke my foot when I was screwing around and wanted to start it "one last time" before I went to dinner (not wearing my boot).

I really dono. were at 220-218 on ours at about 12.5:1 so.....If that helps any.
