reeds will greatly improve the bikes performance, I would personally go with v-force 2 reeds, i have tried both and these seem to give me a little more poewer, they work great with toomey pipes, as far as the settings you will tell little diff. in the low and high settting, in low setting the reeds will last longe in high setting you will be changing the reeds more often, lot more often,they will help great on your low end, remember to re-jet afterwards, or you will probly be to lean

I have VF3. I could not tell much of a difference, except better throttle response. As far as low end I think my heads(160p.s.i.) made the most difference.

no... its the low setting that wear out the reeds ,less tension =more flex & draw of the petals. the low setting  is a  noticable low rpm gain however ,who needs lowend anyways? its a banshee.. its supposed to have no bottom torque, then hit violently in the midrange and carr y it to an eye watering topend,  thats what makes them so dam n fun IMO :)and if anything the jetting circuits will be rich by adding vforce reed cage intakes

I would get the vforce 3's before the 2's anyday. I have heard of some people's screws that hold the reed petals on falling out and into the engine :cry: . The vforce 3's just snap into place. I put vf2's on my friends blaster and it made the power curve alot smoother. Yes, you will have to rejet if you want to get the most out of them. The vf3's are the next thing on my go-fast part list.

 

Some other good mods for you to look into: adjustable timing plate (+4), nossmachine coolhead with domes, lighten flywheel, then comes the expensive stuff (motor work).
