'91 3pg reed cage?
Does anyone know a source for a replacement reed cage? Mine is worn around the edges and not providing a good seal. The pedals are fine, but the cage is worn. I've looked around and not coming up with anything. Is there possibly a cage from a different application like an ATV that might work? Has anyone tried to restore a worn cage with epoxy or something similar?

There are no reasonable exact replacements, but plenty that can be made to work.
Yamaha used reeds on millions of bikes, so eBay is lousy with them. But, it can be run without the rubber coating. I use a whetstone to smooth and flatten the cage. |

Re: '91 3pg reed cage?
Thank you for the info. My cart is currently at the lake so I can't take any measurements from the existing cage. Do you happen to know which of these most closely matches the stock one I have? I don't mind doing a little modification to make one work, but don't have any clue where to start. Will the shape and style of the cage and pedals make a major difference in performance, or will any cage that can be made to fit in there be adequate? If you or anyone knows which one would be a good starting point I would greatly appreciate it.

I used a G1 cage on the 3pg I recently did. It's a little bigger and required opening the holes up. Same gasket pattern was used on a lot of bikes, and smaller cages.
