V Force Reed Valve

[oldsking86]

Question,

Just got a V force reed valve off ebay and I'm sure it doesn't have the reeds, One I know for sure because it chipped and was thrown away. Right now I'm on a budget and can't afford to buy a new set, could I use the reeds on my 250r now even if they aren't Vforce ones? I know it won't perform like it should be better due to the cage itself being bette right?

Did you try fitting them on?

No not yet, it's on it's way in the mail; hopefully be here tomorrow but I was wondering so I know if I can once they get here rather then tear it down and be wrong haha

The v-force cage uses twice as many reed petals. I doubt they will fit. I would wait till you can buy the correct replacement reeds to install it.

Yeah ,you can "Not" use the reeds off of the stock R for the V-force,and another thing you need to check when you get the V-Force cage see what phase kit it 1,2 or 3 -,actually is.You should just get the correct one's that you need,they will make a noticable difference in your machine if you have it set up properly.I would buy an extra set while you are getting them,may be a bit pricey ,but you'll need them on a Sunday or something and won't be able to get em'-been there !!!
