And finaly. Are there any files containing all the torque settings for shercos , on the net.?

See discussion and links on pg 2 of this forum for torque values.

I ran the Boyesens in 125 before and found them a little too soft and smooth off the bottom for my taste. Electric smooth and great for a beginner though. :D

Thank for the input here, the reeds sound like they will suit my needs just fine.

One point i am not clear on is the type of reed, do i need the PRO or the RAD valve or what ?

The discriptions i have read on these have not been aimed at trials bikes exclusively and seem a bit general.

Go to the sticky above and download the appropriate manuals. The setup and lubrication guide and the top end maintenance guide contain torque settings. The information is still current for the most part.

The Boyesen reed is part number 665, dual stage Power Reed

Motomerlin sells them in the uk
