[Tech, not specifically Roc]Running a compression test



Hi all,

	A general tech question for you all...

	I bought a compression gauge and want to test my motorcycle.  Of course,
the stupid instruction sheet was glued into the plastic bubble, packaging
thing the gauge came in.  Since they are now destroyed, I want to make sure
I'm doing this right.  Basically, I believe the steps are warm up the
engine, remove the spark plug wires from all plugs, remove one spark plug,
insert gauge, hit the starter for 3-4 cycles, replace spark plug, and then
repeat for remaining plugs.  Is this right?  Any tips, hints, or warnings
would be appreciated.
