I'm currently upgrading the cam chain tensioner on my bike. The stock Cam chain tensioner has marked the original cap as the suraface area of the original tensioner is narrow. So for the price of this part, it makes sense to change it. The material seems a lot more supple so may last a lot longer.

This kitaco tensioner cap is a must for your monkey125,it is more durable and it will not break easy compare to stock tensioner cap.it is made of hard plastic..a good upgrade for your cam chain tensioner rod.i will order again for my other minibikes.very accomodating,package is well secured and fast shipping.big thumbs up

About quality and texture - The tensioner cap from Kitaco is made from plastic with a surface finish much harder then the original soft plastic one, the quality from the overall fit and finish is perfect.About the feeling of use - This tensioner cap would have to be the best option to use with the original tensioner arm to avoid distorting the contact area from high RPM engine use Will end up last much long and lessening the maintenance of the cam chain system.Products to buy together - A key product to purchase when strating out you Grom modifications is a set of heavier clutch springs to help improve the feel and provide a positive engagement to the drivetrain.Difficulty of installation - The installation of the tensioner cap is an 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 access the tensioner rod and press fit the tensioner cap.Cost performance and comparison with other products - I find the cost of all the products Kitaco sell to great value when compared to what most other companies sell their products for and the tensioner cap is no different.About shipping and packaging - With there being no cost difference between sea freight and EMS for the tensioner cap, I chose EMS for an earlier arrive date. The part was extremely well protected while being covered in bubble wrap and surrounded with air pillows in a sturdy cardboard box.Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing - Webike Japan is the first place I look to for all my motorcycle needs. From service parts to performance products and even motorcycle gear and apparel, Webike always seem to satisfy my needs in regards to availability and pricing.

This Kitaco Cam Chain Tensioner Cap is the weakest part of the Monkey 125. The stock OEM Tension caps have been shown to deteriorate unusually fast and disable your engine. With the installation of the Kitaco Tensioner cap that worry is eliminated and you will require a Left side Crankcase gasket to complete the installation. The material is much harder than the stock oem tensioner cap and will require a bit of force to install on the engine. Shipping was quick and hassle free from WeBike to the US. We purchased two of these Kitco Tension caps as they are a vital component to the functionabilty of your motorcyle engine.

* About quality and texture, The tensioner cap from Kitaco is exactly the same dimensions as the OEM Honda one but is made from a much harder material to last longer.* About the feeling of use, With the use of the harder material in the manufacture of the cap from Kitaco I feel confident in there being no deformation or failure of this part due to pressure applied from the cam chain tensioner arm.* Products to buy together, When removing the tensioner rod to carry out the replacement of the part it recommend to also replace the crush washers for the 2 bolts removed during the process. Webike conveniently have these OEM Honda parts available.* Difficulty of installation, Fitting the Kitaco tensioner cap was not a simple press in fit like the OEM Honda one and did require some force with the use of a soft faced hammer. The process was completed in 20 minutes with a little difficultly.* Cost performance and comparison with other products, I find this a cost effective part as you are removing a weak part of the tensioner system that is prone to failure. More expensive then the OEM Honda part but more then likely will not require replacement in the future like the OEM Honda one will again and again.* About shipping and packaging, I am happy to wait 6 weeks on average for my parts to arrive in Sydney Australia via Webike's sea freight which comes with tracking and insurance so I know I'm covered in case something was to go wrong but with there outstanding bubble wrapping and boxing there have been no problems.* Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing, If you have many miles on your engine and the other parts in the cam chain tensioner system need replacing also, Kitaco offer a kit with the tensioner cap and there cam chain tensioner arm which you may prefer.
