Review on ๐Ÿ” Accurate Cylinder Compression Testing with BM Cylinder Compression Tester by Lamar Hopkins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The right motorcycle compression gauge

Motorbike mechanics, listen up, this compression gauge has an important detail that makes it indispensable. In order for the motorcycle gauge to read correctly, the Schrader valve must be located at the end of the hose fitting. Inexpensive compression gauges do not have a valve here, and on motorcycles this results in low readings. This also allows it to be removed quickly and easily in order to use the hose and adapter for leak testing after a compression test.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Expensive insurance
