[QUOTE="canyncarvr, post: 353358, member: 16552"] DeltaForceII!!! (Not that I have much of an opinion!!! :) Thass'a joke, son........cuz I have an opinion on pretty much EVERYthing...and it don't even matter if it's WRONG!! But in this case it's not) Keep your verbage correct. A DeltaForceII is NOT the same as a DeltaForce. Same goes for calling it a VForce/VForceII. MotoTassinari used the same names, but put a 'II' after either/both of 'em. The II has a light grey body, the original is dark grey/black. The reeds sit differently in the valve, and the II has adjustable tension reeds. The original does not. The unit I got came IN a box with a picture of the original valve on it! I've used boyesen power, boyesen rad valve and most recently the DeltaForceII. The latter is so far superior it's amazing. I first tried them on the 'hi tension' setting cuz moto tassinari said that was the best setting on most every applicaiton they'd tried. Just changed them to 'lo tension' a few rides ago. A HUGE improvement!! The reeds have a lower lifespan on the 'lo' setting, but it's worth it. Oh...a repeat of something in another post (so shoot me).... I compared a boyesen radvalve with the DFII, both run in 200kdxs, both run the same number of hours. After a one year of use, the boyesen reeds were goners. Chipped, cracked, split and frayed. The DFII reeds were perfect! I'm still using those old reeds, BTW. Presumeably a new set would be even better! What's good about it? The bottom end!! That's why I wanted to try the lo tension setting. I ride a lot of single track stuff...rarely out of 3/4 gear. The pull, tractability, smoothness and control of the bottom is incredible. Afford? The DeltaForceII costs [b]LESS[/b] than the rad valve does. Oh...anyone convinced that a radvalve is a good deal, I'll sell you mine. New reeds (the cracked, chipped, split, frayed ones are gone). For MUCH less than the cost of a new one!!! Fred??? Want one??? :) As to the original question: Changing anything with either one? Probably need to tweak the jetting some......toward the lean(er) side. My AS is over 1/2 turn OUT farther (MAYbe even FURther!!??) from the settings I used with the boyesen rad valve. [/QUOTE]
