Have used replacement ones from Camlam, Boyesen dual stage from MB and also just cut them out of regular TS1 carbon items, thou guess it depends on your reedblock to an extent.

Usually drop off in performance and increase in spitback through the carb. Normal signs are feathering at the edges of the reeds.

does anyone know the difference in performance using different reedblocks? (eg dyno comparisons)
cheers

also do you need to modify certain ts1/motorcycle designed reedblocks to fit the imola?
