We were told the same thing about the carbon fiber reeds.
C.R runs a NX Express kit, I run Boondocker on my 500, several other Cold Fusion kits, and never a problem with the Carbon reeds. Even after a couple seasons. Run em, Dawg!

plus the vforce reeds move less by design, so there would be a lot less stress on them. I'd just run 'em

I used gobs of it when I ran the V-force, the stocker has a new gasket on that side.

I usually double up on the reed gaskets, one on the cylinder side and one on the carb side, that little O-Ring in there doesn't cut it for me.
