how bad is it to ride a katana with bad compression in 1 cylinder?
How low is it? Last year I had cylinder 4 compression that was about 70ish and my bike wouldn't run any better than 5K. Make sure the test is being administered correctly before you do anything. If it was bad I think it wouldn't run right anyway. I don't quite remember the numbers and my manual is at my brothers house. My bike had a taper in the cylinders and worn rings and it wasn't that hard to replace. Cost me like 300 bucks in parts thanks to arsenic. I am not that mechanically inclined and I had no problem doing the work. Good luck with the bike.
