Here are some pictures of the head of my engine
-There is burnt oil on the side and top of the cooling fins near the plug but the head gasket looks perfect
-My bike is incredibly hard to start and will only fire when engaging the clutch down a huge hill
-Once started it will continue to run as long as i keep engine revs high, but puts out at a very high idle
-Originally guessed electrical problem but ruled it out because it runs fine once it starts
-The failure to fire at low RPM's suggests to me that compression is failing
-The bike is much easier to push forward with clutch engaged than it used to be
Any thoughts?
