cr@p gauge, wrong technique, throttles not held wide open, battery low and cranking speed too slow, done hot or cold?

.......or knackered engine.

Was it done hot?
What was the cranking speed?
What readings did you get?
(what are the recommended limits?
edit - just checked manual, should be done hot, wide open throttles, both plugs out, battery fully charged, std=15Bar, min=11Bar, cylinders should be within 2Bar. Section 2-30 Periodic Maintenance for curvy types)

Unless it's significantly lower than spec and it performs OK and doesn't use oil and both cylinders are pretty similar, I wouldn't worry.

Why was it done in the first place, did you suspect a problem?
