You're preaching to the choir.

By power reeds, do you mean Boyesen? I bought some for my old Suzuki TS250, but haven't installed them yet.

I've ordered reeds. But instead ordered this instead of just boysen reeds. Who knows what the reed block will be like once I get it out. Price was right on this too

I hope it gets here quick. I've got some days off coming up at beginning of Feb and the wife works and hailey is going to daycare. So hopefully get to work on this

Will all depend how I'm feeling though (vasectomy. Lol wasent going to share. But it's not really a big deal I guess)

For the rear brakes on haileys bike. I'm on the hunt for these parts



I found them on eBay but 16 dollars.
might see if I can just scroung up pieces to finish it off

I have a scooter engine. Its a honda, but I think the rear brake is similar.

If I remember I will check to see.
