I have decided to replace them. It's far too bumpy. Suggestions for the best place in Pattaya (price/service).

Thanks

 

I had an upgrade done at a shop on Pattaya Tai, almost at Sukhumvit.  My YSS front and rear upgrades were 8.3k; stock replacements would probably be a small fraction of that as the labour portion was dirt cheap.  The shop was recommended by two Mityon dealerships and I'm very pleased with the results.

Op, you sure it's the shocks that's the issue.

Somchai puts 50+ psi in all tires. way to high.

No, I had already checked that.

Front shocks are 1000 for the full kit, rears are 800 for the pair. Installation is easy but will vary by shop. I would expect under 1000 for all four. It all depends on where you live.

Clicks don't have 4, 1 at the back, not sure about the front

I did it at the same shop and it feels a bit weird. Not sure if it's too hard or too soft, but feels a bit uncomfortable. I asked them to add more tension to the rear shocks but they refused to do it. There's a language barrier.

My rear shocks are hard as rock, but that's how I wanted them.  They offered to adjust the shocks for free during the first year.  Thanks for relating your experience because it's probably indicative of what mine will be if I need assistance.

I went into the motorbike shop  (soi Buahkau) and asked. They showed me a shock, it was 5,500 Baht. Then I read upgrade. I don't want an upgrade just replacements.

Go to the garage on Klang by corner of 3rd road, popular place, they'll have replacements

If you are replacing the shocks anyway i would have thought it's worth paying a bit more and getting better ones. The stock ones are fairly basic.
