Message: [QUOTE="canyncarvr, post: 106010, member: 16552"] [b]$$ of boyesen rad valve[/b] $120 + shipping from rocky mountain (add 'mc' and a dotcom). I paid considerably more for the one I just got...but I'd rather spend my money locally than with a dotcom. The '89-01 200/'97-01 220 is a RAD-14XA. It comes with pro series reeds. Improvement on my 200 was much better than 'marginal'..but I had the RB carb mod to start with. Bottom end pull AND snap was a large step up. To each his own. Maybe riders that don't like the rad valve didn't rejet right..I have no idea. I know it works like a champ in my 200! Rates up there in the 'biggest bang for the $' category. Oh...to be fair, I also retarded my timing a notch. The bike ran better when the rad valve was put in..but ran better-n THAT with a timing change. [/QUOTE]
