Just for fun Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 No gain or lose on spacers in my experience. If you do get them thery are REED spacers so they go in front of the reeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fixitrod Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 Reed spacers were designed to move bigger carbs back to keep them from rubbing on the clutch arm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proquad101 Posted January 6, 2004 Report Share Posted January 6, 2004 The spacers are ok. They are not the best mod out there, but they will give you a little better bottom end and they do help clear the clutch lever. Yes they do in front of the reeds.

GnarlyBanshee Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Different sizes of reed spacers give you the ability to fine tune your quad's powerband to your personal preference. Moving the reed cage further back slightly shifts power toward the bottom end, while leaving it forward and shifting the manifold back will tend to lean towards High RPM. The size you choose depends on your specific mods, you'll want to experiment to find your personal preference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
