Valve tapper covers.

I installed these a couple weeks ago for better cooling. They are available in three variations. $44.10 per pair plus s&h..The Rucksop.com... for Honda Grom. Will fit Grom, Monkey and ct125A

Those are nice, they look great on your bike. I got pair when they were on sale a while back. They should help keep the head cooler.

 

[G19Tony]

I got a pair also. They look good. We'll see this summer when it's a thousand degrees here.

 

[Arkansas rider]

Yep! for sure. The cooler the head temperature the longer our engines will last.

I had a set of those on my grom. never noticed any measurable temp change (had an oil temp gauge on the bike) but i liked them nonetheless. I have a set of red anodized flat ones coming.

 

[r80rt]

Yeah, I like the look even if they aren't real effective.

They are heat sink with fins has to dissipate heat better than the factory thin ones. More area to absorb the dissipate. And they are billet aluminum.

Im well aware what they are, i had them installed 4+ years ago on my grom. lol. im just saying, in my experience with those exact ones, there was literally no measurable difference.... and i was measuring.

These things are basically bulletproof. If you like the look go for it but the same engine probably hauls a family of four and their business, a couple hundred pounds and maybe no oil changes for thousands of miles in hot hot South Asia. Its a well proven design...

The covers do look cool, but I like my oem look of the 1974 too!

Any little bit helps.

That 90 is why I have now have the 125s. Buddy had that 90 and I had the Honda SL125. I went faster but his looked more tactical and would go almost anywhere. IF you got stuck you and buddy could pick it up and walk it out of trouble. We were in the 82nd ABN and tactical always trumped speed. Always wanted to rig it with a chute and drop it out of the back of a C-7 Caribou and follow it out but he would not have any of that. Even got permission to lash it to a practice load during a course we took at Pope AFB but again he said he need to be able to ride it home after and wasn't going to risk it. Would have been so cool, especially to have pictures of the two of us coming off of Sicily drop zone riding on it. Damn...
