Help 2008 r3 touring not starting

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!!!

Good luck. Fingers crossed.

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
