About quality and texture, I can confirm that the quality is great and that the materials used are a aluminum tubing, reinforced silcone coupler, stainless steel hose clamps and a water proof air filter. About the feeling of use, The ram air intake kit is much more compact when compared to the original air filter setup and looks better suited to the Monkey 125 with an incredible intake sound that is generated from the little motor. Products to buy together, While looks and sound are improved over the original setup, the negitive aspect that this setup brings is a lean fuel condition due to the additional air. Selecting a fuel controller to correct this problem would be ideal to also add to your cart. Difficulty of installation, I can say the fitment of the ram air intake kit for my installation was of average difficultly due to the access required to remove the original air filter setup and also position and secure the silicone hose to the throttle body. Cost performance and comparison with other products, The pricing of this product is high but worth the extra cost if you take into account the water proof and cleanable air filter that will see you through many years of use. About shipping and packaging, My order was shipped within 24 hours of the product being in stock and I received a few emails advising me of the status up until the order was dispatched. The order arrived within the estimated date range and was extremely well packaged. I found the link supplied to track my order very useful while I was waiting for the order to land in the country. Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing, I have no concerns or cautions when purchasing from Webike. I cannot recommend Webike enough for the majority of your biking needs. They not only sell aftermarket parts and bike gear but also OEM parts for your repairs and servicing needs.View Detail

About quality and texture - Top quality. Very happy with the polished finish on the aluminium intake tube and the water proof ability of the Sprint Filter.About the feeling of use - This air intake kit looks a 1000 times better then the OEM Honda airbox and that was the main reason behind installing it on the Monkey. There maybe a slight performance increase on a stock 125cc engine but nothing to rave about.Products to buy together - I find when you remove the OEM Honda airbox for an after market intake it does leave a large gap on the left hand side below the fuel tank and I would recommend adding the horn relocation bracket from Kijima to fill that void.Difficulty of installation - Pretty straight forward install here and no special tools required. You should have the old airbox removed and new ram air intake installed in under an hour. The intake tube can be positioned in a few different angles depending the look you're after.Cost performance and comparison with other products - This kit is expensive compared to the one available from Kitaco but I find the parts in this kit to be of a better quality and the look of this kit was what I was after.About shipping and packaging - Sea freight is my preferred shipping option and usually arrives in Australia in 6 to 8 weeks from dispatch. Always well packaged to ensure parts arrive safety and are ready for use.Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing - If you are looking for that slight performance increase from the air intake but do not want a loud intake like this one is, I would suggest purchasing the power air filter from Takegawa that fits into the OEM Honda air box.View Detail

There are a few local stores selling parts for the Grom but the range is very basic.View Detail
