Did anybody try the Ohlins PCX Shock absorbers ? Could you give an advice on the comfort improvement ? They should be the best, but the most expensive as well...

I can't speak about the Ohlins, but I have the g-series XL YSS from bikerzbits. It took literally like 3 months for surface transportation to get here but the feel was night and day. much better shock absorption and no more bottoming out.
Highly recommended and SUPER easy to install.

Here is the link to a thread where rear shocks was discussed, including Ohlins. It might be helpful.

Hi Guys, thanks a lot for your answers. Maybe the YSS g-series are not so different from Ohlins, being much less expensive. Anyway no Ohlins reviews so far...

Ohlins on a PCX is overkill in my opinion.
YSS shocks are a nice upgrade for a decent price. I installed mine today and they made a big difference. Bumps are no longer something to be afraid of, though it's still best to avoid them with the PCX's thin tires.

I installed YSS G-Euro XL today, and find them quite bumpy on the softest setting
However, the scooter doesn't bottom out anymore, which is a welcome improvement.
