if its on already leave it. they add a tiny amount of volume to the engine, and a longer airflow path. actually the best use for the reed spacer is to make a cr intake boot fit better or to run a short style carb.

I think spacers are only good for lengthening the intake tract. I couldn't tell of any gains...
