I'm already thinking about summer maintenance I got 1k miles on 1 sled which has been boosted since 200 miles so definitely doing reeds and pistons. Can't I just replace reed petals on the stock reeds if so does anyone have a vforce part number? Parts add up quick when you gotta fix 2 sleds. just lo looking for a little relief.

Before when polaris wasn't using vforce.
They would only sell a new reed block.

No listing for petals through vforce?
Do they snap in like the newest dirt bike ones?

In theory those should fit. Unless polaris has pulled a fast one on us.

While were on the topic.
Has anyone tried the aftermarket vforce3R in a turbo.
I think remember reading that boondocker was saying they are good to go.

That's a whole lot cheaper than complete reeds and if those don't work for some reason I'll be purchasing my reeds direct and not through Polaris

I understand the gasket arrangement.
On the oem one is different than the aftermarket ones for the older sleds.

If your doing it in the summer and have lots of time dont order reads until you have inspected yours. I pulled mine last week just to have a look thinking they may be getting close to needing to be replaced and at 600 miles running 7lbs since day 1 the reads looked brand new, no chips, warps, burnt marks missing seal surface or any light at all coming threw
