    Hi

    Just a question about the reeds

    on my last inspection of my bike the reeds are still in tact but would not be far off from replacement.

    so I am in the process of getting them so I have them on my shelf when the day comes to replace.

    so far I know my WR 125 is a 2002 yet I do see a fair bit of production time stamps in various parts to be 2000, are there changes in reeds (shape,size) throughout the years of this engine or not?

    Robert-Jan,

    Does yours have the V-Force 2 reeds? I believe they went to them at about that time. If it doesn't have them then you need to order reeds for the 00-01 husky. I would install the boyesen dual stage reeds instead of the stock reeds if it takes the older style.

    I have piles of 125 V-force II reeds if anyone wants some.

    Do they make a V-forceIII for newer bikes 07 and up?

    Robert-Jan;
    I have a 2004 WR125 and when I replaced the reeds they seemed to be the same from '01 to '06 - BUT some bikes were fitted with V Force cages - Mine was not. I used a set of Boyssen Power reeds #608, as they were about 30% cheaper than the stock reeds - I cant say if they were better as I also changed piston ring and blew out pipe at the same time. There is another Italian manufacturer of after-market reeds but cost the same as Boyssen and delivery was questionable.
    Check the cage and then you'll see from Boyssen's listing what years they'll fit. Hope this helps.
