    I have two little cracks on either side of my reed valve. Both look uniform. Bike is not sucking air but im thinking i should replace. Opinions??

    im guessing you mean the airboot part of the reedvalve? ive seen alot of them cracked and seem not to leak air BUT i would replace before riding the bike because once it starts sucking air it prolly wont take long to lean you way out and sieze up. if its the reeds themselves cracked i would replace them asap also.

    ive seen various vforce boots crack on all kinds of different brands of bikes. cant say any of them have cracked all the way through. our husky's havent cracked yet.
