pipebomb Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 (edited) technically they can go in either side for different reasons, but 99% of the time they go between the reed cage and the cylinder.

jarmmike Posted April 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 thanks,thats what i thought.the only problem i encountered was the reeds wont fit inside of the spacers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipebomb Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 that's odd. you sure you got the right ones?? the spacers should be shaped like this. what kind of reeds?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowriderb Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 are the bolt holes lining up? if not turn the spacer one turn.. and it should slide right on.. also like it was asked what type of reeds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00tbanshee Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 you might have too take a die grinder and open the spacers up so that the bolts that hold the reeds in will clear mine was done when i got my shee thats what it looks like to me they did. if that is what your talking about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarmmike Posted April 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 what difference would it make if they went on in front of the cages? could i install them like that,whats the difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipebomb Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 (edited) when they are installed the way they were ment to be(between the head and reed cage) "They give your bike a boost by improving the velocity of the air/fuel mixture entering the cylinders." thus supposibly adding topend power.

pipebomb Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 (edited) And here's what Trinity claims "Trinity's 1/2" or 3/4" reed spacers manipulate intake air so you can adjust how hard the engine kicks when you open the throttle. Different sizes of reed spacers give you the ability to fine tune your quad's powerband to your personal preference. Moving the reed cage further back slightly shifts power toward the bottom end, while leaving it forward and shifting the manifold back will tend to lean towards high RPM."
