Does anyone know about what the compression reading should be for an '05 YZ125 using a standard tester that
screws in the spark plug hole? I can't find a value anywhere
in the manual. I'm reading about 130-135 psi. Seems kind
of low. Thanks.

You expect about 150-185psi, you need to hold the throttle fully open and kick like mad.

I just picked up a compression tester and a YZ250.
Would the compression be simular for the 250?

Should be closer to 200psi or higher for the 250.
