[QUOTE="Dirt Bike Dan, post: 943844, member: 55515"] When my reeds were bad, I could feel air blowing out of the carb. Pull your air boot off, and cover the mouth of the carb with your hand and kick it over. It should suck your hand against the carb, whereas with bad reeds it will pull and then push. I'm pretty sure this method would work for your 500. If not: If you have the reeds already off, if there is a gap between the reed cage and the reeds, they probably need replaced. Any gap that the naked eye can see. You could try flipping them to see if that helps, but I would get new ones asap. [/QUOTE]
