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.
May 22, 200818 yr Author 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.
May 22, 200818 yr 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. Wayne
May 22, 200818 yr The Boyesen reed is part number 665, dual stage Power Reed Motomerlin sells them in the uk
May 22, 200818 yr Author Thanks for that, the manuals and imformation look good. thanks, and thank you for the part no for the reeds.
