Going to buy some aftermarket reeds for my 83r. Anyone have any advise on which would give me the most improvement. V force, boyeson, what type?? How much will aftermarket reeds improve engine performance. When I put a DG pipe and silencer on it was the difference between night and day, just want to know how much they would actually help.

Im refurbishing an 83 250R right now. Im not going to say "restoring" because Im getting sick of wrenching on it. There will be small details that I may upgrade down the road, but......Anyway, I put in some carbon fiber reeds to replace the stock metal ones, and I could certainly tell the difference. It revved faster, and had a little more mid range, nothing too crazy, but worth the 30 bucks anyway.
