My 4L0 barrels are away at the PJME health spar, they have been previously hacked about to take larger reed cages, though the bodging Ba.....s who ripped off the last owner and fitted them to his bike left standard LC reed cages on.

(Rebored to 0.5 new pistons but LOADS of old damage not cleared , including lumps out of ports . and breath...)


Wanting to rebuild it as a standardish but lightly tweaked engine wondered about the above ?

Ahh Legend... Have a search on here about the delights of their Legendary quality products.

FWIW these will be chinese knock offs. Is that what you want? The fact you asked I fear mean you already know the answer...

Wouldn’t bother

Thought as much, but you never know

I`ll stick to some good quality fibre reeds in some genuine ypvs blocks, seeing as there is now a big gap around the original blocks in the hacked about barrels .

Thanks all.

Are genuine Yamaha fibre ones not available still ?

We need a thread on which parts are no good to buy don't we,...or are all their parts pants basically?
Same with Yambits, how can you tell before buying/trying something first??
