Buck Ten Reed Valve
Anyone know where to buy a rattler 110 reed valve. Performance or stock I don't care. Mine died recently when I let a friend use it. Has spark, cold compression test showed 85psi(I'm sure warm would be much better) and I have tried starting fluid. Only thing left is reed valve. I haven't pulled the carb and intake yet, just trying to find one first.

You might call some of the scooter parts supliers, like Scooterworks, Scooter Lounge, or Scooter West.
Your friend didn't run it low on 2 stroke oil I hope... Good luck!

The reeds showed up Saturday from BO2S4, put them in today and it runs great again. I'm not sure why that fixed it, the stock reeds looked fine and seemed to seal. Either way it's fixed and I'm happy. One odd thing, I guess the carbon reeds are a little tougher to open, I had to raise the idle a little for it to idle even once it was warm.

Welp.... Looks like those carbon fiber reeds took a dump already. What's the part number on those Yamaha metal valves? I need something that will last. Performance is low on my list, I just want reliable. I need this thing to get me up and down my driveway often. I drive a tow truck nights and weekends and after a good rain I can't bring the tow truck up to the house and I'm not walking 800ft of driveway 10x a day
