reeds

Hey fellas, just wondering if it will make a "noticable" difference if I put new Boyesen Power Reeds on the stock rad cages? The motor is all stock, but the bike is piped & jetted.

 

Thanks

I think if ur gonna spend money on reeds, you should go with the V-Forces. There isnt gonna be a significant power increase with only reed pedals. You will prolly just a have a little better throttle response.

will adding the V-Force make a difference if the engine is still stock?

I did what you are talking about and noticed a difference. My stockers were pretty old though so I can't really say they are much better than stock.

I noticed a difference with the throttle response, but i added them along with a crapload of other goodies, so i cant contribute my powergains to the reeds themselves.

V-Force 2's w/ no airbox lid! YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHH

if your looking to just spend a couple bucks, they are a million times better than the stock ones. I'd go with the all epoxy dual stage reed set. The throttle response is great, and your quad will do what you want it to do, when you want it to do it.

thanks for the input guys.

I'm getting ready to install some with some reed spacers I'm gunna be ordering tomorrow. I know a guy who runs those reeds, stock reed blocks pulled out, with spacers & his shee runs nice & smooth, very nice ride...got rid of his lightswitch powerband. Vforce would be nice & would be my prefered choice, but in my financial fuck right now, I can settle for something else. Anything's better than stock, right.

v force if you can swing it. especially if youll be doing some major mods later. try to plan ahead.

I have the carbon tech reeds and they made a big difference.

I have those and love them. Go from 1/4 throttle to wide open with instant response. If you are just tooling around real slow and want to go to like half throttle it is awesome.

oh yeah....some people dont do it (dont know why), but when you put the dual stage boyesons on, ditch the stock reed stops.....they are worthless....
