Title: Boyesen, Rad or Standard Reed petals for YZ400D
Post by: crossedup2 on April 30, 2011, 12:43:00 am

Hi All

Desperately looking for a set of Reed petals for a YZ400D/E. The box of bits that I bought that now resembles a motor is missing the reeds because someone has broken or removed them.

It appears that stock ones from any of the models below will fit.

Or Boyesen part number is #606 (fits YZ / MX / DT 360 and YZ400 up to 1978).

Thanks in advance.

Hi Viper

I looked last night and they all wanted $30+ for postage. I have ordered this set, Thanks.

I'm just interested in firing this YZ up and trying to sort out some of the little things to make sure she's a goer before the Crawford River Classic in May. Last time I build a bike from nothing but a bare slighty stuffed frame and a box of E-Bay engine bits. Most of it will need to be there before I spend a cent!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll move on to the other project to fill in the time, an RT1 from Nathan S to see if she'll run before the CRC.

Thanks again.

when the postage is inflated like that, make sure you send the seller a question about it first. Word it politely, ie "it looks like the automatic ebay calculator has bumped up the shipping a bit, could you check it please"

99% of the time the seller will fix it up and reduce it dramatically. I've done just that with this seller in fact.
