Is there any machine that has reed spacers available that will work on the tri-z?

Yamaha YZ250

The reeds and everything interchange, so, probably the spacer will, not sure what company makes one, try HINSON.

Reed spacers should be called "I wish I had a boost bottle" spacers. You don't want one on a TriZ.

What does a reed spacer do? And what does a boost bottle do? Would any of these work well on my 250R?

this is going to be a generic explanation of both. Correct me if im wrong, I've never had either.

Reed spacer: Lengthens the travel of fuel and air to the cylinder giving a better atomization before delivery to the cylinder, which in turn helps burn the entire mix burn better.

Boost bottle: This on Im a little fuzzy on, but I think it precharges the fuel are mix to make a more even pressure charge for the cylinder.

I think both are minimum gains for the average rider but can get that little extra when in competition with other riders for little cost.

Again I'm going from theory here so others can correct me if I'm way off base.
