nottoogood Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 just got my custom Boyesen reeds in and installed (carbon fiber). After an initial scare (seems the carbon reeds raised the idle by about 4000rpm's!), tried them out in many conditions. Aside from the idle speed difference (easily fixed), no drastic changes...just noticable throtle response improvements at all rpms....much better at lower and higer revs. I no longer notice the percieved "reed flutter" at very high revs. Aside from the act of congress it takes to get at them...i definitely recomend this mod...and since I paid the initial "drafting" fee, they should be affordable.

designtime Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 How much are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nottoogood Posted July 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 i paid a hundred bucks...which included a custom engineering/cad fee....so im guessing a lot less than that. I think it really makes the power even smoother. My 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pillar Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Did you research the Vforce 3 reeds? Why did you choose the Boysen over Vforce? Was it a price reason? I believe the Vforce are more coin but are suppost to be better. I'm thinking about doing it to my Evo 290. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
