i just want your opinion on these reeds ( seems like the complete set,right?)

no one digs these?

Look alright to me.

the original ones are not both the same material, the one piece between the reed-block and the actual reeds seems softer material.
in this case it's both carbon fibre, so wouldn't you thing that these would break soon as they constantly get "smashed" into eachother?
my top reeds seem ok, but it's the one between the block and the actual reeds that's burned,torn...

The differences in material stiffness on the stock ones has to do with the reed action from low throttle/rpm and WOT. If those CF reeds are both the same thickness, I would think you would loose that sort of action that Boyesen (I'm guessing this is what you have in your bike) designed into them. I highly doubt "Jollify" or whatever the company is called did any R&D on these, especially at that price. What they did was get the dimensions of the stock reeds, then stamp them out of a .5mm thick sheet of CF and sell them 5.5 euros, claiming they increase performance.

I'd stick with what Boyesen designed for the motor.

that's what i was expecting and i guess you're right about the process of fabrication
that price will go up, i'm shure,but still has no guarantees to whether they are durable or not...
i guess i'd best go for the real deal

thanks anyway for any input...
