theshee Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 If you got whats in that pic, you got the reeds and the cages. They are together. You shouldnt need the spacers, but use them since you bought em. You shouldnt have any clearance problems, I have vf3 reeds on my wifes banshee with no problems at all. All you will need to do is modify the stock intakes to work with the VF3 reeds. They come with instructions how to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theshee Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 No, all you have to do is cut some of the stock intakes off. It wont fit inside the new reeds. Dont worry, its real easy to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dgrey Posted July 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 And i'll notice a pretty big difference in power? =) What about the CDI upgraded box that is available for like $350? Do you like those? I already have a stock head mill and a timing key so can I still get that box? Should I take off the timing key? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad and brother both had them and loved them so I went from sand skate II's to the sand gear and the are much better in the dunes. I ride at Gordon's Well they throw a fat roost as well.

That will be a mod that you will really notice, like turning a light on in the dark. Reeds wont really increase top end power, but increase throttle responce.

Reeds wont really increase top end power, but increase throttle responce. Okay, last question, I think! =) If I was to get it ported do I need to worry about any other components being to weak to handle the power? If there anything I can do/buy as a precaution to keep it running its best for the longest amount of time? I used to have a quadzilla and that piece of crap would leave me stranded all the time. Breaks, head gasket, blew it up twice it was fast, but not worth the grief! geez im so glad to have a Banshee now Edited July 17, 2007 by Dgrey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theshee Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 Depends on the port job, you may want different carbs, but no, nothing is gonna break from the power of port work. If you want to keep it running a long time, check your jetting often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
