Good Little Power Increase on a Budget for the Monkey
About quality and texture: I am happy with the quality of the 143cc e Stage big bore kit from SP Takegawa. The cylinder is aluminium with a steel sleeve and the piston is cast from aluminium.About the feeling of use: With the small increase in engine capacity and also an increase in compression the power the engine produces is now much more fun for around town.Products to buy together: The N-15 camshaft from SP Takegawa would also be desirable to purchase alongside the e Stage 143cc big bore kit as one is not included, this will help to continue producing more power in the higher RPM's then the OEM Honda camshaft.Difficulty of installation: The process to install takes about two hours and that includes checking all the ring gaps with no adjustment required before assembly. A little difficult to do but the Honda service manual has all the information to help you get the job done correctly.Cost performance and comparison with other products: Good costing as you are getting a high quality big bore kit at a very reasonable price. Much cheaper then the 181cc kit and requires less supporting parts for a reliable engine.About shipping and packaging: Sea frieght was my preferred method of shipping due to the lower cost but currently this service is unavailable from Japan Post, EMS is much faster which is nice. 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: If you are looking for a simple tuning option then the SP Takegawa FI-Con is what you want and if you are looking for the best tuning option then the aRacer Mini-X and AF2 is what you want but not currectly available from Webike.
