125-200cc 125 reeds

[bdl507]

Will any of the Boyesen Rad valves fit a 2013 wr144. I dislike the vforce stuff a lot. My 09 300 leaked around boot and now my 13 144 is too and I have seen countless sets of vforce stuff go bad. Thanks in advance for any help.

They never made a rad valve for the husky 125. You can get the stock 99-01 boot and reed cage and add the pro dual stage reeds. I am going to try one just to see the difference. I have a buddy with the 01 setup with the pro-reeds and it has amazing mid to top. May be unrelated but I want to know.

I know they are not listed for the husky but will any thing bolt up? Most reed set-ups flow better then vforce and will give better mid and top from what I have seen. RAD valves are way more open when you hold them next to vforce.

If I had to guess, I would say a rad valve for a 97-01 Honda CR125 will be close. Let me know what you find out for fitment.

That's what I was thinking about trying it will be a few weeks before I can spare the cash but I will post how it fits and how or if I had to "adjust" the fit

You may already know this but you can use Honda paper gaskets on the WR250-300 reed block. Bill's Husky did this to my WR250 before they put it in the crate and shipped it to me.

I was a tech at a husky shop 08-10 vforce was very smart and stamped the part number on the reed block where the raised sealing area of the intake boot just happens to be. My 09 300 leaked like crazy. I also got to see the 08 250's that were breaking reeds and vforce told cagiva they needed to update and they said no because bmw was buying them and they didn't care. So when bmw got them we told them to contact vforce and throw away old stock but not sure what happened with that.

Ive never had an issue with vforce reeds
I know older CR125s seems to go harder but i dont thinks its the reeds - I thought higher compression and/or ignition differences . Not cylinder as my 08 125 was an older cylinder

pretty sure a Honda CR125 reed block is super close if not exactly the same. I think i like the Boyesen stuff better too and am interested in your results with the Boyesen Rad valves

 

[rockdancer]

I am too but I ve tried them on a YZ 125 and the difference compared to standard wasnt very clear
