Best Looking Intake for the Monkey 125
About quality and texture: I am happy with the quality of the hyper type 1 air cleaner from Hot Lap, the intake pipe is made from stainless steel and the kit includes stainless steel band clamp to secure the silicone hose and a mesh air filter. About the feeling of use: Due to the shaping and polished stainless steel pipe this air intake is the best looking intake for the Monkey 125 and the open area created by removing the Honda air intake now gives the Monkey 125 more of a Z50 look. Products to buy together: An additional filter would also be desirable to purchase along side the hyper type 1 air cleaner, I prefer to vent the crankcase to atomsphere so a filter with an 8mm mount is needed. Difficulty of installation: The process to install takes about three quarters of an hour. Most of that time is taken removing the Honda air intake, the air cleaner slips straight onto the throttle body and the intake air temperature sensor fits into the pipe and connects to the main wiring harness with the included extension harness. Not difficult to do. Cost performance and comparison with other products: high costing but you are getting great quality items included in this kit for a very reasonable price as compared to the Brock’s ram air intake kit which is great quality also but at a much much higher price. About shipping and packaging: Sea frieght is my preferred method of shipping due to the lower cost and it is fantastic that it has returned as an option once again so I can put my money toward parts and not high shipping costs. Webike kept me updated on the status of my order up to when it shipped. The parcel arrived within the expected date range and was well packaged with no chance of the part being damaged. Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing: When deciding on an air intake also take into consideration if you will install an oil cooler in the future as not all air intakes are compatible with all high mounted oil coolers due to the available space.
