The answer is definitely "yes".

I had the opposite experience with my Yamaha German Boehms bought about 1990.

With Yahama's supplied German Reform Boehm mouthpiece the twelfths in the lower and middle of the instrument were ways too wide.

With any non-Reform Boehm German mouthpiece the twelfths are pretty good.

The difference is the degree of taper in the mouthpiece bore. The "reform" mouthpieces are based on the modern Wurllitzer reform Boehm bore which has minimal taper in the mouthpiece bore. Modern German non-reform mouthpieces have a very significant taper, much more pronounced than any French mouthpiece that I have measured.

I think you may need to reduce the mouthpiece bore's taper in your case.
