Hey guys, I'm about to restrip my engine again to sort out an oil leak once and for all and also maybe figure out why things are overheating so quickly. I also figured I should check to see if my rings are shagged yet based on the smoke pouring out of my breather. The compression tester I have doesn't have the right thread for a GSXR spark plug thread so does anyone in Sydney have one that I can borrow for a day to get this out of the way? 6 pack for the lucky helper.
Cheers

Yeah slight whisp of white smoke at idle once warmed up and when engine is switched off. New rings, only 200 km on em. Pretty sure heat got the better of them so i'm going to see what I can check out before I strip down. Can the smoke be a result of anything else? Any ideas anyone?
