I should check my information but im to busey. The v-force 3 reed kit for the lt's is one and the same if you catch my drift, Take a look at the part number or fitment chart. Cheers

Power charerstics are the same as a 500 small vs large reed, the small reed makes more bottom end and a smoother power band all the way through. A ported set up to a ported set up, you won't see much difference on the 250 the small reed will pull a little harder before it really comes on the pipe, where the large reed will be a little dead feeling if its ported the same untilled it comes on the pipe and makes a maybe a couple more HP. I actually prefer the small reed in either the 500 or 250 for all around power and racing. If your drag and hill shooting only the 87 could be an advantage. In the 250 its not a noticeable difference up top until you radically port, even then its still not a clear advantage I've ever seen. On a big bore engine the 87 has potential to work more like the 500.

I have a 91 lt250r that needs a topend. That beig said, I have the 91 top end that has stock ports and might need to be sleeved, and I have an 87 big reed top end that is ported and does need to be sleeved. My question is, which is the better topend to use? The big reed or the small reed? I know the 87 big reeds are more desireable for the quadzilla, is that the same for the 250? I have always had and have the quadzilla, so I have never really paid any attention to the 250s in the past and I dont know too much about them.
