About quality and texture - The rear shock absorber from SP Takegawa is made from steel and aluminium featuring chrome and red painted surface finishes, the quality from the overall fit and finish is perfect.About the feeling of use - Much improved performance and appearance over the original unit with it's heavier rated spring and preload adjusting collars and at a price that everyone can afford.Products to buy together - The Honda Grom is an inexpensive motorcycle with a lot of low quality parts from the factory, so the purchasing of other higher quality parts like this rear shock absorber from SP Takegawa would be perfect and the essential product to purchase to complete your suspension upgrade would be the Kitaco heavier front fork springs.Difficulty of installation - The installation of the rear shock absorber is a intermediate task that took 1 hour to complete. Mechanical aptitude, knowledge on disassembling the Honda Grom and the use of basic hand tools is what is required to secure the rear shock absorber between the frame and the swingarm.Cost performance and comparison with other products - I find the cost of all the products SP Takegawa sell to be on par when compared to what most other companies sell their products for but this rear shock absorber is even better value.About shipping and packaging - With there being no option for sea freight or EMS for the rear shock absorber, I had to chose FEDEX which is priced higher then I like to usually spend on shipping.

I put it on my Grom JC75.

I chose Mr. Mukawa for his peace of mind among many others.
I swapped it out to counter the Grom's unique butt-ache problem, but I wasn't impressed.

I thought things were going well with the side cover off, but it was just like they said, Torque!
It's better to have a solid tool like a cross wrench.

Buy Grom (JC61 pre-owned) When I took delivery of the car, I asked the motorcycle shop to install the rear suspension because it was severely criticized for being too hard and not serving its purpose.
Does it look a little thicker and longer?
The Motorcycle shop says that Rear is going up a bit.
This may be why it bends well.
It doesn't come to your body with a thud when you go over a bump in the road.
I've heard that Grom's Seat is not a good Seat, but I rode it for 2 hours, 100? and my butt didn't feel so much pain.
I think the rear shock might be working.
I don't know how hard Normal rear shock is, so I can't compare, but I think it works well.
So far it's all good and no Demerit.
