Ok, in the boxes of bits I got my bike in originally, there are these fibre-reeds that look a bit different to me. they are in 2 parts, there is a big flat reed with 2 holes in it, and then another smaller reed with 2 fingers that cover the holes in the big reed. theyre not in any box, so I have no idea of make or type, but they do fit into standard 4L0 reed-blocks. what are these, and are they worth fitting?  (not for me as mine runs ypvs blocks - unless they fit them too?) Ta ALex. |

I had them on my LC and they worked FAR better then the stock reeds. With stock reeds I had a terrible flat spot before/as you hit the powerband, but with the Boyesen reeds it was smooth power deliver all the way. |

Nonsense.. those Boysen trapdoor things 'cost' Hp.
You want a Cheap upgrade over ancient/ tired OEM steel ones?
Fit Banshee oem F'Glass reeds . Very inexpensive.. from the yama dealer even.
Those will put a Smile on your face.
IF saddled with an LC?... retrofit '86 Yama YZ125 reeds (these come as 3 leaf F'Glass piece.. snip off the 3rd leaf and they fit the LC reed block... perfectly.
