Over the span of about a week, I drove my dirt bike around instead of my BR, and when I did go to take it for a ride it had very little compression. For about 10 or 11 kicks it seemed to only have around 10 or 20 psi. But she eventually fired and all my compression was back.

Is this a sign that I soon need new rings? I have checked the valves and they are spot on. I can kick this bike over with my hand most of the time.

Compression release was prob stuck or you might be getting carbon build up around the valves .

The 250BR doesn't have compression release. Thanks, I'll look into the valves
