v force 2 reeds?? anyone help
dan580,95 moto:
i have the supermoto mag featured 580, have been rebuilding for a while now, getting down to the last few bits, i was glad to see it had the force 2 set up in it untill i tried to get replacement reeds, i looked everywhere but they all had 12 petals, mine was 8 petals, after spending hours on the net and with help of doldguy on here, it appears to have a kx250 reed block as far as i can work out, the cage is small and doesn't fill the reed cavity in the barrel, the question is has this been done for a reason such as torque increase or just human error? i always found despite its dyno hp it never wanted to rev, does anyone know if all i have found is correct or did the earlier force have 8 petals and a smaller cage.if i need the proper set up 12 petals can anyone help PLEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAASEEEEE with vf2.
after checking sandblaster brilliant thread on the cylinder cut and showing how poor the vf3' is i really dont want one, though i guess if i had to i would fit with a 10mm moose spacer. but in mind this increases the volume of air in cases below piston and will slow air speed to top of piston??
thanks guys hopefully someone wiser than me can help

There's 2 vf2 250 valves the skinny one you have & there's a wider 250 valve also. The wider 250 fills the k5 hole. If you look on the manifold side of the valve the part # is usually raised there in the face.
You could look at the jet ski stuff. Just watch your width, once you've seen the skinny ones you can spot the wide ones.
