I know for a stock viper the OEM ones are the best reeds. My question is if i take my cpr piped viper back to stock will i be ok leaving on the v force 3's or should i change those back also. Figured i already have them so am i loosing anything just leaving them on? Thanks chris.

Havent yet but their are a few reasons. I love the pipes and as far as the pipes and clutching goes its dialed in and is very fun to ride. This is where the biggest problem lies. These sleds need to run and stretch their legs. I got the wife and daughter sledding now and its 60mph at the fastest and a lot of stoping and waiting for them to catch up. I dont mind cause i love that their riding. Gas is marginal at best this year, im getting the DCS a bit more than i used to. Yesterdays tank of gas no light and ran strong all day. Today got the light twice, nothing diff between the 2 days other than gas. Plus this is my only sled and will be for a while yet. If i had another sled that was my trail (U.P.) rider i would leave it piped and use it for my everyday river runner. Also the drop in MPG does suck up north on the long trail days, river dont matter. I am going stock just not sure if im selling my stuff or not yet. If i do it will be all together. Chris

ah yes, I understand your dilema. I only had the CPR's on mine about a half season. Yes they do want to be squeezed. The mileage does stink too, I know all about it. Funny thing is even in stock form mine wants to go. Sometimes I run with others on my hometown autobon type trails and they think I ride fast. It's nothing for me to be cruising along and look down and see 80 mph and there is alot of throttle left.
 
It certainly wont hurt the sled to keep the vforce 3's in there, but not really going to be any advantage either, so the stock reeds will work just as well and you can recover some $$ for the aftermarket ones. I actually run the stock reed blocks with a slight stopper mod in even lake race engines, I dont see any kind of gain worthwhile from aftermarket reeds till you get into a full blown improver/pro stock or full race big bore engine. The stockers are alot better then most people realize.
