Not drivable because of this. Cause: low compression in front cylinder (40 psi, should be 120+ psi)... rear cylinder is fine at 150 psi. These are cold readings. The Honda service manual says this could be caused by a) valve stuck open; b) worn cylinder or piston rings; c) leaking head gasket; or d) improper valve timing. This is beyond my mechanical abilities, and this is why I am selling this motorcycle.Contact me at show contact info for more information or for my phone/text number.VIN # is JH2PC21391M211077
