Pros and cons about Boyesen reeds?

[banshee35027]

I just want to hear everyone's opinions about aftermarket reeds. Super stock or pro series? Difference? Pros and cons?

V force. Done.

Pros:

Better then stock

Cheap if you find used

Still replacements available

 

Cons:

Out dated

Replacement parts are the same price as VForce

Not gonna perform as well as any VForce.

Their cages have that weird flute that needs to be ground on or your manifold needs modifying if you are using anything other then stock or UPP manifolds.

So go with v force?

Replacement reeds are way cheaper then vf

I dont mind boyesons, as long as your not trying to get every ounce of power. I run them in duners all the time.

Imo.. not all builds need vf. Stockish bikes won't see the gains like the bigger more high strung builds. This was proven on the dyno with the vf2. And no one has posted a dyno of a stock bike comparing them since. I use chariot cages with power reeds. I've used power reeds and switched to vf and couldn't feel a difference. Imo.. unless it's a drag build or something larger then 4mil.. not worth the price.

Trick, your thinking of the rad valve.

Same here. A little "play" motor that you don't need every last HP,,,, stock modded cage and boyesons work good.

Snop posted his dyno results with carbon tech single stage reeds against vf on a woods build.. results were interesting.

 

This was years ago.. maybe a minner will dig it up. Lol

Yes, didn't think we were just talkin petals.

gotcha, the OP asked about super stock and pro series so thats what lead me to think we were talking petals.  But I agree with all your statements about the RAD Valves..

Stock cages modded by RB racing for the economic build.
