How?
You bought some and installed them.....what is better?
Please --- say more than just "the ride is better" (That's likely your VISA card talking)
It's a scooter, so what way is the ride no longer like a scooter....since stock shocks are already adjustable ?
Rebound, damping, bottoming, too hard, too soft, have red springs...what?
Curious, here.

Aftermarket shocks are better ?

Stock shocks not adjustable. With a pillion stock shocks bottoms out pretty quick.
Everything looks better from the inside of a motorcycle helmet...

I'm looking at the stock shocks I took off when installing the YSS shocks and they are not adjustable. With one up the ride is slightly firmer than stock shocks but doesn't bottom out over potholes and bumps.

Mr Chin, Fish rides a Forza. I think 4Z's have an adjustable stock shock.alx123 wrote:Stock shocks not adjustable. With a pillion stock shocks bottoms out pretty quick.
Put me in the 'not impressed' column for NCY (Rear-Nitrogen) adjustable shocks. These are commonly advertised for the ability to stiffen up your soft tail scooters like the Buddy. I do not doubt this absolutely fixes the problem but mine will be set to as soft as I can dial them which pretty much makes them stock PCX shocks... so I could have saved the money.

Yea FISH, you been here a hundred yearsalx123 wrote:He posted this in PCX board so..

So I should state that I ride on oversized tires that may have tainted my review of the NCY shock. To be more conclusive someone else might need to buy these aftermarket shocks for a PCX with stock tires and report. I recuse myself as disqualified to comment further.

Locked
Before PCX members get confused.
As said, the PCX does Not have adjustable shocks.
The Forza does.
