v-force reed tension?

[kuchera89]

i have a v-force 2 and was wondering what the advantages of the high and low tension are, more bottom or more top??

thanks in advance!

Go with the low. I've used it that way for a year with no signs of wear.

The low tension will give you better low end, high tension for top end. Either setting will yeild better performance than stock. If you are a high rever, use the high tension setting. The low tension setting lets the reeds flex more and winding out the engine will wear then out faster. I shortshift and rarely wind it out and have 2 years on the low tension setting with now signs of wear.

on my 125 i have it screwed in all the way, so i guess high tension for me.

Low tension on a 125 that is ridden hard, is sure to chip the reeds.

i wanted more low end but i rev it out some so i wont risk it and keep it on high tension.

i think you adjust them by flipping the metal peice over, i think, dont hold me to it.

thanks for the help Y'all
