GSX250 Across project

[Batfink]

Finally putting my old 91 Suzuki GXS250 Across back together...
put it in the shed about 7 years ago after doing my Ls when I found out that Transport "accidentally" wiped my bike class off my license years before.

Sad news... finished project and got it passed for Road Worthy but it seems it sat in shed for to long and rings went.
In final tuning found that compression started to drop dramatically, now down to 60% of needed so this bike is now up for wreaking..

really REALLY pissed off about this outcome as the bike looks so good...
