Af05e needs new reed valves and or block
I am having trouble figuring what to go with as there is several differant styles.
The only thing i can think of is that i will be running at high rpm. Close to redline which is currently 31.63mph before cvt upgrades i need something that can withstand high speed without breaking the bank.
Stock af05e uses flat type 2 petal reed valves if i rebuild that the thickness is my main concern. Malossi uses .25 - .35 thickness 35 sounds as ot wont respond to low idle (stock start up.) the difference between my version is its not a 40mm x 39.3 dish low compression its been upgraded to 40mm x 39.2 dished piston.
It runs a uni filter so all preformance must be ready for crank upgrade in the future but without losing low range start up.
The reeds are probably plastic or metal type dog sh# cause they are slapping under load. Its confirmed by honda motor cycle over the phone that my reeds are shot thus eliminating any chance of my carb being out of wack by jetting.
