YSS Shocks & Fork kit for 2015 PCX 150 in California USA, or alternatives?

[jbecktahoe]

Hi,

With one rider, my shocks feel like a spring only. No damping....
With rider and passenger, the spring is much more compressed, with lttle to no travel left (?)
In both situations, square-edged bumps ( I.E.potholes) break my back, totally inadequate especially at speed.
Yes, I can weave to avoid potholes and sewer covers (which lie below the street level) but that's dangerous.

Does anyone have decent shocks, adjustable, that can be shipped within the USA ?
YSS is a Thailand company...I have experience with owning them but I don't want to do international shipping...

Does anyone have the YSS shocks (and the fork internals kit) and were you able to order it in the USA ?
How well do they work?
Or, did you order from Thailand ?
How long did it take in the mail to reach the USA and did it fit on a 2015 USA PCX 150?

Can anyone help me with this?

Wellllll...hmmm 2105 hasn't arrived yet. Not sure anything has been invented for it yet.

Really though, YSS makes great products. Many members in the past upgraded their PCXs with YSS products. If i wanted to upgrade my front forks I would choose YSS, though NCY would also be worth looking at. (My rear shocks are already changed out. I have Takegawa Lowering shocks so that my wife can ride it if she wants to.) YSS has different sets for different weights. Consider whether you ride 2 up or are in a higher weight category than the lowest grade ones. gas canister ones are great.

I hope this helps.

Thanks!

I don't see a way to edit the post, or the posting title...clearly mine is a 2015 not a 2105.

I am mostly interested in experience of people (in the US) who upgraded their 2015 with YSS, adjustable model shocks, and how was the international ordering (cost, time)?

To be clear, I ride alone and with my wife, looking for feedback re: fully adjustable shock to fit the 2015.

I think the ones I posted pics of are not supposed to fit the 2015, not sure.

I found Zeed website, (YSS distributor in Thailand?) I sent an email but no reply...

thanks again!

Does anyone know what the difference is between the different color series of YSS shocks? I see red, gold and black are available but I don't know the difference.

I am 175 lbs and occasionally carry my wife who is 120 lbs. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Those particular ones you are looking at may not fit a 2015 model.
Try these:

Thanks..maybe getting adjustable ride height, preload, compression, and rebound is not going to be possible for a 2015.

I will keep doing research... I may phone YSS in Thailand ...

thank you

Go to EBay and enter this into the search: 'yss shocks for 2015 honda pcx150'

Thanks again @Met46,

eBay sellers do not accurately describe the features (ride height, preload, compression, and rebound) of the results that are returned with that (and other) searches..

WEBIKE in Japan. I have bought stuff from them before. Fast but international shipping and they use all the credit cards.

I have never had an order problem with these guys and I order a lot of stuff from them. I don’t have any problem with over seas shipping. I have ordered these shocks, they work great with the standard configuration spring and shipping was about 40 bucks…

Thanks,

Are these adjustable FOR ANY OF : compression, rebound, preload, ride height?

Received my shocks and fork spring kit this week from BikerzBits. I live in Mesa AZ, shipping took 5 days, no hassles at all with DHL although a little pricey US $135.45. I worked with Emmet at Bikerz and he was great. Always replied to emails in short order and selected springs for my weight. Installed the shocks and once I got the spring preload set they work great. I have a 2021 PCX 150A. Yes the original shocks are really just a spring. Original equipment shocks on a price point scooter like this are meager at best.

Welcome aboard the forum(s) jbecktahoe. I have corrected your model year in your threads title. Note that I will be moving this thread to: our PCX Technical board where I believe it will get more recognition. Good Luck with shocks and Happy New Year!

---> Mel, you've still got your sense of humor! Cheers to that!! Happy Healthier New Year to you and your wife
