v force is best but for cheap I have been very happy with the boysen dual-stage reeds.  Nice bottom end power gains, smooths out the delivery with no loss of top end.  I put them in all my bikes. Never found a reason to use anything else. Cam.

I added the V-Force when I was working out my starting problems.  I suspected the original reeds were in need of a refreshing.  Can't say how they compare, but bike runs fantastic and starts first kick.  I'll tear into them this fall to see how they held up.
