About quality and texture - Excellent quality with nice looking chrome end cap and Takegawa branding.About the feeling of use - A pretty small air filter for the intake that looks great bolted directly to the trottle body.Products to buy together - To extend the service life of the air filter a air filter cover is a good idea, product # 03-01-1119 for this shape air filter.Difficulty of installation - If your motorcycle has the room for installing direct to the throttle body like mine it is an easy five minute job.Cost performance and comparison with other products - Considering these are not a cleanable air filter I find them expensive and maybe could have spent the same money on a cleanable one from K&N but I do enjoy the SP Takegawa product line more on my motorcycle.About shipping and packaging - Combined sea freight shipping to Australia is good value and does take around eight weeks but all item arrived intacted due to the great packaging.Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing - SP Takegawa have a few different styled air filters with different sized mounting options, so do your research to ensure the correct air filter is selected.

I enjoy viewing photos of other peoples Honda Monkey 125s and coming up with my own DIY parts when possible and this Specials Parts Takegawa air filter will be used for a future intake mounted directly to the throttle body. The numerous options available from Special Parts Takegawa make this possible as I required a small air filter to fit into the available space on the motorcycle. The quality of this air filter is excellent and I only wish they Special Parts Takegawa would make their air filter cleanable but if used along with their air filter covers will prolong the life of the air filter between changes.

This is the only one I have used for many years. It is a consumable item and I replace it regularly. I don't use it in the rain, but I have no complaints.

I ordered this one to match carburettor MIKUNI VM26, it's very nice and good with the price of money. I just wasn't satisfied because the shipping was so slow, it took me a month to receive it.
