I heard that installing V-force reeds accually richen up your quad since they seem to pull more fuel. Not sure just what I have heard. Make sure they are not cracked or anything. Mine came to my house with cracks in the reeds. Warranty covered them and it ran 10x better and I didn't rejet

Man i just got done trying to find out what exactly what VForce reeds do. From everyone i talk to they say if your bike is stock don't put them on but if you have pistons , bla bla bla then there good.

Think about the basics. answer this question.

When do you rejett your bike?

Any time you change the intake system or exhaust system, correct?

No matter what it runs like after you install reeds or pipes you should always rejett the bike for optimum performance.

So are they a good upgrade for the bike?

well i didnt lose alot...its just that when im pinned in any gear its not goin as fast as it should be but the motor sounds like it is...and yes its a very good upgrade...i found out that all i have to do is change the jetting because it is running to rich. should i turn the needle clip up or down?(this is for the main jet)

They are a very good upgrade to your bike. If jetted correctly you should notice ***** load of mid range hit!

I just put my VF3's on my Banshee. I'm running K&N Pods, T5's on stock motor. I haven't taken her out for a run yet but the rev's sould really good. Very good throttle response. I can only imagine it's performance but I'll find out on thrusday when I go riding.
