Boyesen Reeds Problems

Featured Replies

hi ive just been out today for the first time since fitting boyesen reeds in my rev3 . at first there was a noticable difference mainly on hill climbs. there seemed to be loads more power. After a couple of hours solid practice the bike started to lose power as if the clutch was slipping. I may have developed a clutch problem I did also notice the bike smoking quite alot ( yeah I know take its cigs away ha ha ) . I was wondering if anyone had had simular problems. could this also be a over heating problem ??

cheers Leggins

I'm very please with the results and for

My 04 rev 3 now has boyeson reeds and re-jetted carb. It is so much better. hard to stall, more responsive at low revs and smoother at high revs.

Probably the best

Standard ones are 150 and 30 if memory serves me correctly.

Give Lampkins a ring, only just over
