Reed valve
 
New to this forum. I can?t seem to find replacement reed valves. I have a 2011 EC300.

Welcome to the forum.

Do you have the V Force 3 Reed block?

Welcome to the forum. Where are you located?

Moto-Tassanari part #3P682M for replacement petals if V-Force 3.

Thanks for the response guys. I?m located in Hawaii. I just picked up the bike on Sunday. There?s a low to mid range gurgling, no hesitation. The best explanation I can give is if a car was running on 7 cylinders instead of 8. There?s no problem at WOT though. I opened up the carb and found 35 pj, 158 mj, and N8RW needle on the second clip. There?s spooge coming out of the muffler too. I ordered a JD jetting kit. I didn?t get to inspect the reed valves yet. It?s a vforce3 valve. Any info would be a big help. Thanks.

Golly that's a small pilot and tiny mainjet. Never heard of that needle. Put the complete kit in and try it again.

That?s what I said. I?m just waiting on my kit to arrive. That?s one disadvantage of living in Hawaii.

I just bought reeds for the V-Force 3 in my 2011 EC250 from North Tahoe Motorsports on Ebay. Look them up. They've got a kit both with and without the gaskets. I'd highly recommend getting the one with the gaskets, as my gaskets were stuck on and removing them completely destroyed them. The ones on it (I assume stock) were a paper base, while the new ones seem to be a bit more like foam / rubber.

I'm not sure how shipping to Hawaii works, but it was very fast from Nevada to North Carolina. They've got piston and gasket kits, too. (I also ordered those at the same time).

Yeah I?ve been searching on eBay. I found one for $50 with free shipping to Hawaii.

I recently replaced the reeds in my 07. They were wearing thin on the contact area but wouldn't have failed for some time. Have a look at them before you order.
