Thanks for that tip Fonty. Based on what you say, the pointed reed isn't doing anything untill the reed is almost fully open, then the reed gets progressively harder to open as the rpm goes higher. I can see where its important for the reeds to open at the correct rate to coincide with RPM, but this is probably like jetting the carbs where each bike has its own optimal rate that can only be found by experimantation on a Dyno. I guess I'll have to change my stacking order to your reccomendation.
