    Installing carbon fibre reeds to my bike wont require any changing in the jetting ect will it? Finnally got the bike spot on so just making sure :)

    Dont think so, I installed some performance reeds into one of my 2 strokes a while back, I dont think the mixture changed. If the layout of the reed assembly hasn't been changed at all (I.e made bigger), then I imagine that the same flow will still occur. Fibre reeds are always good to have, because if they fail, unlike some reeds they wont damage the engine. They will disintegrate and get sucked through the exhaust port.

    What sort of difference did they make?

    I'd say they improved throttle response and overall the power felt smoother.
