cr125 reeds

The Cr rad valve looks to have the manifold built into it I think. In Wich case I'm not sure it will work because the Cr has almost a 45* angle Comin out the reeds to the carb.... U can try though and let us know!
i was looking at that and is why i was askin but im bet i can make it work somehow. i was also worried that the cage part that goes into the intake might be wider than the stock one. guess someone has to be the test dummy...
i just scored a used cr125 boysen rad valve off ebay with a spacer and the manifold for 60 bucks ill try all this when it comes in. so ill play ginnie pig for a little. ill let you guys know for sure
cant realy be better than vf3 because they have a 4 pedal design
i learned that today
^^^^ yes but from what i am understanding is that they wouldnt have as much tip area they would be close but probley not better you cant beat the price on the cr 125 cages but i think if you have a vf3 cage you would be good to stick with that

As I already said, I've used both vf3 and the cr125 cage on my setup, so I think I have a fair opinion of both..you can fall to the hype of the vf3 if u want to waste the money though.
i dont care how much tip area they have. the shear volume of flow you will have because of the larger cage will more than make up for that
i just measured my cr reeds with spacer vs the stock cage and the cr reeds sit 3.87mm further away from the bridge than the stockers so why should i space them another 1/2 inch away? and look at the size of these cr reeds vs stockers!!! some one show me the vf3's as a comparison? Did u get the cr reeds w spacer , boyesen reeds and intake boot?
im not debating that the reed cage is not bigger but its not all about size you got to take the tip area into play most of the fuel that flow through the cage is going to come off of the petal.. eventually off of the tip of the petal the greater the reed tip area equals the greater the fuel that is going into the cylinder.. this is a generalazation about reeds but hold true for the most part.. v force is the only cage for these that uses 4 petals.. that means it has alot more tip area which means more fuel.. the 4 petal v force design will make more hp in 99.99% of applications on these little engines thats what i read today about makes alot of sense to me sooooo the more tip area the more fuel can flow i do understand that vf3 have a high price but honestly i think theres a reason. im sure they spent plenty of time perfecting the design. im sure they went threw lots of trail and error to get it right. just like im sure ken did flotek wildcard with there porting. im not saying to not go for the vf3 but lets be honest if there is a gain from the 125 reed cage over the vf3's. is it realy going to be that much to of spent the money on the vf3's to take them off spend more on the 125 cage the spacer and if you dont have a dremal or the skills to mod the cylinder. is it worth all that to switch for a little gain in power to no gain at all.
when there is other things you could do to push more power outa theses fun little machines. im just expresion my opion on the subject and giving you guys the layout on how i look at things. if i could score a cheap cage would i do this swap probley but thats not the point im trying to make.

out of the 2 between boysen and vf3 do you hear is a better power gain and better throatle response unless you port the boysen cage
Exactly how many reed cages have you tested on the same motor...you seem to have a lot of feedback and I know you haven't run CR cages and I would be surprised if you have the vforce.....??
no i dont not im only saying what i have read and heard about from other peoples feed back and i am only trying to contribute what i have heard.
this is a forum this is what it is for. its kinda like alot of people diss fmf and say its junk but they have never tryed fmf only heard about it from others but is that true ??? not realy but then you hear how great f7 is is that true yes f7 is a great pipe as i have heard from alot of people. alot of the stuf you hear about on this site noone has personly tryed owned done ect.... im just stating my opion on the subject i just think that if your going to disscus something you should look at it from all angles i just wanted to get it out there is all. im not trying to offend anyone or say anbodys wrong but can you show me any real numbers saying that the 125 cage is better dyno chart anything at all would be great. or if you wana give me some info as to why the 125 cage is better than the vf3's besides there bigger. im alays interested in doing more reading
some of the first paragraph seems very familiar to me...
hmmmmmmm i wonder where 8-| i heard it from a pretty werid guy always talking about how he likes men ???????
