Has any one ever tried Carbon Tech Reeds? I would prefer first hand experienced riders to answer, but if hearsay is as much as anyone has i 'll take it. And btw this is on a 250r but any one with Shee's or any other 2stroke thats tried them i could use their input to.

I tried them on a Blaster with the OEM reed cage. The light tension ones gave excellent low to mid range with very good response. The heavier tension ones (stiffer) worked better upper mid to top end. The lighter ones still worked pretty well on top, they were by far the best reed of the many I tried for the stock cage. That's on a motor with a pipe, UNI filter, shaved head, spacer, the usual bolt ons - no porting. Excellent choice for the OEM cages IMO.
