Thanks

Yes they are very good think you may have to do some grinding but they fit them in race bikes .

I asked Ron ( Fahron ) about opening up my LC inlets for YPVS reed blocks last year . He told me he wont do it . He advised me to buy some YZ85 reeds and remove the centre bar from my LC reed blocks and give them a tidy up with a file . The YZ reeds fit the standard LC reed blocks perfectly and are a one piece design . I have no scientific proof but they do seem to be an upgrade . It even sounds better .

Hey,
Stepping a bit off topic.. What fiber reed alternatives exist for the 350 YPVS? Preferably something with a somewhat long lifespan..
My bike is quite standard at the moment and expect to keep it that way, but I'm not that happy running these old steel reeds.. for all I know they may never have been replaced.

Not able to answer your question.
But I’ve just bought genuine Yamaha metal reeds (still available) as I’d read a few stories about modern fuels attacking non metal reeds. How true it is I don’t know but I think the genuine reeds last a long time.

Hi. The links in Spanish? Non comprende? Sir, if you use google Chrome you can translate the language. This guy he's saying than before the force 2, he traid TZR reeds before the fVorce with good results. If any one can give us feedback. |

Hey, Anyone tried the vForce knockoff's from Aliexpress?  I don't think I dare even though they almost look like the originals. Anyway I was kind of hoping to just replace the petals with some fiberglass or carbon, something from another bike must be around the right size. |

hi, ive fitted reeds from a banshee into my 4lo barrels, I will say that there wasn't much space to get them in and I had to do a lot of grinding but didn't break out the sides, so it can be done.

Fitting reed spacers would help, then there is less metal to remove to get them inside, always the risk of breaking through though. |
