I went ahead today and did a compression test...
Can't be more happy than now!!
Front rotor : 120 - 120 - 120
Rear rotor : 120 - 120 - 120
I was expecting something more in the 90ish, but hey that's good news!!

Just a little update :
I was always having some acceleration hesitation, and the accelerator pump was not working, so i ordered a rebuild kit. But yesterday, i decided to clean my return valve just for fun... When i removed it, air would pass on both side and it was kinda sticky. I put in in my ultrasonic cleaner with alcohol for 10 minutes, blew it with air, and guess what? It worked again!
But the best part is, since i did that, my accelerator pump started working again! I readjusted the carb, i can now idle nicely at 900rpm and i've got almost no hesitation when accelerating! I'll clean my plugs today and try again, but it's crazy how little things like that can do alot!
