I've just fitted the bigger jet and changed the reeds on the dt but do I keep the standard reed stop to prevent the reeds from snapping or do I not use it at all? My reeds didn't come with the little rectangular piece of metal that goes under the screws.

Cheers

BUMP

I'm hoping to get the bike back together tonight

you'll have to use the stops if you havent got the plates for under the screws

 

It wouldn't be very hard to make one, unless it has to be a certain material...?

They are made of steel

I've got it all back together now and I used the oem stops. I'll go for a ride tomorrow and see how it is.

God it's such a pain getting the carb back on the bike lol

I also removed the snorkel and started it, I personally don't mind the intake sound so I'll probably keep it off.

So I went for a ride today and tbh, I couldn't really notice a difference after the mods I did, (boyesen reeds, 240 jet, intake manifold, removed snorkel). I noticed that 6th gear has lost a bit of power, doesn't seem to have any pull at all now. I'll do a proper plug chop tomorrow and see how things are. I'm also really thinking about taking the reed cage back out, removing the oem stops and making a rev-plate so they can open more.
