ZILLAKILLA Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 I am going to be installing V Force 4 Reeds to my Banshee. I know they pretty much just bolt right on but I was told the rubber sleeve that goes to the carb has to be cut/trimmed to accept the new reeds. Just wanted to make sure I know exactly what needs to be done before I take it apart. As easy as it might be I just want to be sure I don't F it up... Thanks for the input ahead of time.

RIPPIN' IT UP Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 I have installed V Force 4 reeds in my shee, they are very easy to do. The reeds come with a stuffer in them. The intake boot has a primative form of stuffer that goes in the stock reed cage it gets in the way. This is what they are refering to to cut off. Now if you follow there instruction they use a washer has a spacer between the intake boot and the stock cage, this is all held together with a nut and bolt. (off the engine of course). Using a hack saw blade in the gap between the cage and boot to cut these rubber blocks off. I did that for my first side, the hack saw blade leaves a very rough finish and leaves heaps of little rubber shaving everywhere. The second side i just used a brand new stanley blade or box cutter, much better finish and no shavings, didn't even bother bolting the boot and cage togther with the washer spacer. Hope that make some kinda sense and helps ya out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
