Pretty sure you will not buy a copression tester to fit the NC30 plug, I knocked the centre out of a spark plug and silver soldered up an adaptor to do mine.

as what jon has said since only the NC30 / NR750 and possible a select few other bikes use the tiny plugs compression testers are not readily available.. it's not too difficult if you know someone with a lathe to knock you one up.

I used a piece of copper pipe threaded to the appropriate size last time.
