I have an 85 lt250r that has an fmf pipe and air cleaner on it. I am looking for reasonably priced performance. I understand that there's not too much you can do to this year and I'm eventually going to upgrade to a zilla. Reeds? Heard to also get a 39pwk? How hard are the reeds to change
Well the reeds on an 85-86 are inside the cylinder itself. So you will be needing to pull the cylinder and install them. It's not a hard job but you would need to drain coolant and than be needing new base and head gaskets. Worth it... probably. But that's up to u.
It can be done without removing the head, so you'd only need to replace the base gasket. Pretty easy
