Great video and info! Question is, when replacing reeds, do you need to change the jet in the carb? If so , how do you know which size jet to install?
sub to my channel guys!!
Hello.
I have a question to you. I have a Yamaha DT125r from 2000. It’s a road bike with gianelli exhaust for the rest orginal. Do you have experience with v force reeds? Does this make any difference?
Thanks from Michael
2 strokes are just junk! My rm 85 was just rebuilt and still lol doesn’t start and has no compression
Making two strokes great again …
Really good, I’m going to check mines soon.
Great video. Keep them coming!! Thanks!!
Do they need to be changed or up graded of you do a small bore to fix a scratched or worn cylinder, thanks for the vids
Does this make your power band kick in faster and also different ones make it come in smother ?
Great job from your fans at How2Wrench. Added to our playlist for everyone.
Do they have to go in a certain way?
i had a boat motor that sucked a reed petal into the motor it took me forever to figure out the problem , i replaced it and it ran perfect , i used the motor for years and never took the motor apart to find the piece that it ingested ..
so the fact that I can see directly through mine is bad right lmao
I should probably replace the body and all huh,? What’s a not so pricey unit I can get
Can you replace this while still in the bike after removing the carb?
Ofcourse u didnt ccover the stainless steel reeds my cr85 has, great tutorial didnt help me at all
I just spent almost 600$ on Rocky mountain atv, I’m going to be homeless because of you guys 😂😂
My rm85 hesitates in almost every gear but if I let go of throttle and then gas it again the power is there but feels like it could be more gets better as it warms up , I’ve cleaned the carb over 5 times making sure I’ve got everything , checked my reed valves and one of them has a slight gap for sure isn’t sealed like the other one could this be the problem or should I start looking to see if it’s something else
You never showed how to replace! Waste of my time
Hows it going man what mod do you have to do to install the vforce4 on a 98 yamaha banshee
Very good explanation of reed valve function and operation! Great job!
My yz125 idles but when I put it into gear I can ride it for 200ft before it’s sputter and stops, could the reed valves be the issue? I just did a carb rebuild and top end rebuild.
Hi mate! My cr250 is sometimes hard to start (8 kicks’ish) also on idle its kind of revving on and off quickly (when hot) do you think this could be the reeds? They havnt been changed in well over 5 years
Do u think bad reeds can be causing an extremely high idol from the get go. I inspected the whole carb and can’t see anything that’s wrong even replaced throttle needle. And also messing with the air screw does nothing. Someone please help
Just bought a kx250 and it’s got stage 3 vforce reeds, didnt even know it had them till a few minutes ago but cool I guess idk anything about them
i have a king cobra 2012 50SR are the reed petals are universal?
Thank you so much young man. God bless you brother.
I have a 2000 cr125 with v force 3 reeds and I’m trying to make it run the best for woods would v force 4 reeds give me anymore power?
Very good information thank you for sharing
which reed valve is best of boysen and vforce for most power?
I’ll try this one more. I have a 99 Polaris trail boss. It will not start it’s getting fuel is getting spark it just won’t fire. I noticed fuel dripping out of the front of the motor where the exhaust is. I pulled a little strings off the exhaust old exhaust part off and it was full of fuel. Is. that because of a faulty reed valve. And could that be why it will not start. Any help would be great thanks
Great video. What’s the difference between a reed valve like VForce and a rad valve like Boyesen?
Hi just want to know can it cause spark plug problems if youre reeds is damage
Another great video. Thanks guys
I have a 1999 Polaris trail boss 250 will not start.
