    You may try doing another compression check on the rear cylinder when the battery is fully charged. It may have used up tge juice when you check the front cylinder. If the battery is lower when you did the second cylinder it will give you a false reading.

    Back in the day, my young and dumb self was introduced to the buying and selling of souls by some MTG dudes at the local card shop. They would legit use them as currency amongst themselves. I dabbled a bit and "bought" a few from classmates in good fun. One really let it get to him though. A few years later he found me on social media and started messaging me in the middle of the night, essentially begging to have his paperwork/soul back. I didn't have the heart to tell him I'd lost it, so I left him hanging with the belief I would never sell it back to him. At least in his mind, he would know where it was.

    For over 20 years, I bought, sold, swapped, and restored vintage drum sets and snare drums as a side gig. In the end, dealing with eBay and having to ship everything was a giant drag and I stopped. So I totally understand having to try and part out a bike to try and make money. But I also understand just wanting to keep all the parts for down the road (up until last year, I swear I had enough stuff in my basement to build my own Harley). For what’s on that bike, I think you made out either way. $1500 was a good investment.
