I didn't quite know where to put this post, but I just wanted to say thank you for letting me join your forum. I've always been a Honda admirer for a long time. I currently own a 1994 VT 1100 and in 1979 CM 400 T. One of the reasons why I asked to join this form is because I am interested in purchasing a 1980 CB 650. The salesman said the previous owner said that there was a low compression. What the compression was, I'm not too sure. I believe it's supposed to be 9 to 1 compression.

Welcome That is the compression ratio. When doing a comp check should be in the 130 psi range.
Did you clean the tank out?!?!?!?!

Welcome here!
For a coarse but quick compression check, you may turn the engine forward with a 24mm socket at the right side of the crankshaft. You should feel four equal compressions during two turns. If you feel a difference, something is wrong. Maybe just valve settings, but maybe something worse.
