johnnymack63 Posted May 24, 2020 Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 Reed block on the left is RGV250, reed block on the right......is not. Need a reed block to replace the imposter, and also to sell the imposter. But what is it from ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bram43 Posted May 24, 2020 Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 I’ll bet you a packet of Monster Munch that it’s off a early 90’s CR125. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t find a reed block with 4 screws holding the sides on for any vintage CR125. Its bigger than the RGV reed block block so my crude logic wonders if it’s for a 250 single? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jollygiant Posted May 24, 2020 Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 I'm not 100% sure but I think my old mid 80's Husky CR250 twin shock had a reed block like that. It was a very long time ago!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t too sure and I just passed it onto to a mate who think it looks like it could be an old cr250, but not oem. He was wondering the size too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chance Posted May 24, 2020 Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 i thought most hondas were 6 bolt id say its off a yamaha but cant be specific on a model, maybe tzr or yz125? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John21 Posted May 24, 2020 Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 I second the Yamaha vote. Reminds me both of my TDR and DT due to the twin holes. Can't say I know the model though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBChris Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) I've thought about this a bit more: I wonder if they're TZR250 2XT. I know they're eight-petal. Buggered if I can find a picture of one though, they're so rare. Perhaps one @Tom Mac might know? Edited May 25, 2020 by PBChris 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
