Help 2008 r3 touring not starting

[Wdugan9080]

Hi all you rocketeers I'm back, so I haven't gotten a bike back, but he went through the valves, all were right on. changed the fuel filter and while changing the fuel filter he broke the bolt on the tank so I had to get a new used tank for $575. Plus more parts. It's over $2,000 already and still being worked on, I have to pay him for the valve check and installing the ram air filter so far he said he'll install the tank for free oh goody, oh how I wish I replaced the injectors myself, guess I'll try putting a can of barium down the throttle body for number two to loosen up anything that may be holding that valve down slightly and add some to the fuel, maybe some sticky rings from running rich that's causing the low compression in #2 afraid to ask him to do anything more, my pockets are getting deeper but my arms are getting shorter. supposed to have the rest of the parts Monday hopefully Tuesday he can work on it and I can have the bike by Tuesday or Wednesday. The good news is I may be getting a truck that's 12 years old and about 150,000 miles for close to nothing from my daughter. stay tuned hopefully next week I can come back with some good news. Have a great weekend!!!

...... It's over $2,000 already and still being worked on,

There's a nice low mile bike in the flea market for only a grand more. Good luck with everything.

Hi rocketeers got my rocket back today running a little better I guess that's because of Ram air filter more air leaner fuel mixture, new plugs, but the low compression is still there, keeping me awake at night, will look into it more in the future. Haven't figured out cost yet so far. Think I'm going to do barium or sea foam into the throttle body on a hot motor to try to clear the carbon. Probably should do a leak down test. Glad it's back

Hi rocketeers. I picked up some CRC intake valve cleaner and some Berryman fuel treatment B12. Put the Berryman and tank as directed. Sprayed most of the CRC throttle body 2 the rest in one and three. As directed let's sit for an hour throw it at 60 miles an hour and second gear sud highway speeds but I was in Key West so slow no highways for a half hour on my way back stopped at a light didn't seem to idle very good popped out of the throttle body so I reved it up real high a few times quickly, throttle response got better and seemed to idle better now I'm going to set the stepper motor TPS primary and secondary. Total cost so far $2,750 not counting the original $50 for the guy to break my fuel injectors that I sent out for service , some place in Maryland. Hope you're all getting some good weather to ride in have a great day thank you all for the help and replies and the concern. I'll get back after I do another compression test to tell you if it actually did something.
