Keeps the chrome aesthetics of the Monkey 125 but gives you a more aggressive riding posture
About quality and texture - The semi-down handlebar from Shift Up is made from steel with a chrome plated surface finish, the quality from the overall fit and finish is perfect.About the feeling of use - Keeps the chrome aesthetics of the Monkey 125 but gives you a more aggressive riding posture, and the open handlebar pipe allows for an easy installation of some barend mirrors. Products to buy together - Another product to purchase if looking to add to a more aggressive riding posture would be a set of adjustable billet aluminium footpegs.

Some mechanical aptitude and the use of basic hand tools is what is required to secure the handlebar to the bar clamp and transfer over the switch blocks, levers and mirrors.Cost performance and comparison with other products - I find the cost of all the products Shift Up sell to be on par when compared to what most other companies sell their products for and the semi-down handlebar is no different.About shipping and packaging - With there being cost difference between sea freight and EMS for the semi-down handlebar, I chose sea freight for a cost saving over an earlier arrival.

Great stock looking handlebars that lower the profile of the bike. Bike feels more comfortable and handling feels more nimble and responsive. I would have gave it 5 stars but the hole for the right hand switch housing wouldn't line up. Rather then re drill the hole I just wrapped the bar with a few layers of electrical tape so the switch housing wouldn't move. View Detail
About quality and texture, I can confirm that the quality is great and that the material used is steel tubing with a chrome plated finish. About the feeling of use, I find the positioning of these handle bars much more comfortable then the original handle bars but they still look like the original handle bars when fitted to the bike which is what I was wanting to retain. Products to buy together, I chose to add a new throttle tube, new grips and new bar end weights when installing these handle bars but the only part you cannot reuse from the original parts is the bar end weights as the new handle bars do not have an insert to secure them. So bar end weights would be ideal to add to your cart. Difficulty of installation, I can say the fitment of the handle bars for my installation was average due to the high number of parts that required removal to allow for the new handle bars to be installed which ended up taking sometime to complete. Cost performance and comparison with other products, Pricing of this product is great. You receive a nicely finished handle bar that look original and fit well. Other handle bars available for the Monkey 125 are much higher in price. About shipping and packaging, My order was shipped within 48 hours of me placing the order and I received a few emails advising me of the status up until the order was dispatched. I find the link supplied to track my order very useful and the order arrived within the estimated date range. Extremely well packaged and the Webike staff always got back to me with any concerns I had over the entire process. 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. Extemely happy with the OEM quality chrome finish so it still matches the rest of the motorcycle.About the feeling of use - The dimensions of these handlebars suit this mini motorcycle much better then the higher OEM ones and the Monkey is still comfortable to ride.Products to buy together - A new set of grips with more comfort then the OEM ones is a good idea and a quick throttle tube from Kitaco will be the icing on the cake.Difficulty of installation - I found this installation difficultly average mostly due to the amount of items that required disassembly to swap out the handlebars. Took me a little over an hour to completed the job with basic tools from the garage.Cost performance and comparison with other products - I found the pricing of these handlebars excellent and I have no regrets buying these over the other brands available for the Monkey.About shipping and packaging - I think Webike are doing their best with shipping pricing, so I'm happy. Packages ship within 24 hours and arrive very quickly from Japan.Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing - These handlebars do not have inserts in the end of them like the OEM ones so reusing the OEM bar ends is not able to be done without modification. It's just easier to also buy new bar ends.View Detail
Now that I have fitted the Shift Up handle bars designed for the Honda Monkey 125 I can report back with the pros and cons. Only one con really and that is the the pre drilled holes for the switch blocks are not quite right causing the switch blocks to sit a little low making operating the indicator button in particualr a bit difficult while riding. I will have to re drill the handle bars and re position the switch blocks in the future. Pros I love the way the handle bars now make the bike look more mini bike. I ergonomics of the handle bars are well suited to me and give the Monkey a more aggressive feel then the OEM handle bar crusing feel.View Detail
These handle bars from Shift Up are exactly what I was looking for. They keep the same styling as the OEM ones but are just a little lower. Having the handle bars say chrome was a must for me. The quality of the product looks to be perfect. They are specifically made for the Honda Monkey 125 and come with the holes drilled for the switch blocks which is great. I'm looking forward to getting these mounted up on my bikes once I decide what grips I am going to get. The only negative is it looks like I will not be able to reuse the OEM bar ends as is due to the Shift Up handle bars not having an insert in the ends to accept the OEM hardware.View Detail

About quality and texture - The slip-on exhaust system from Akrapovic is made using titanium for the exhaust piping, the end caps and the sleeve, the quality from the overall fit and finish is perfect.About the feeling of use - This slip-on exhaust system offers massive savings in regards to it's weight over the original heavy steel exhaust system and the deep sound of the exhaust sure does not disappoint either.Products to buy together - The Honda Grom has no carbon fibre parts fitted from the factory, so the purchasing of other light weight parts to compliment the titanium exhaust is what I would recommend.Difficulty of installation - The installation of the slip-on exhaust system is a simple task that took 0.5 of an hour to complete. Some mechanical aptitude and the use of basic hand tools is what is required to secure the exhaust piping to the exit pipe and the sleeve hanger to the rearset plate.Cost performance and comparison with other products - I find the cost of all the products Akrapovic sell to be higher then what most other companies sell their products for and this slip-on exhaust is no different. About shipping and packaging - With there being a significant cost difference between sea freight and EMS for the slip-on exhaust system, I chose sea freight so I could put the saved money toward other additional parts.
