YSS Shocks?
 
Does anybody have experience with YSS shocks? mine has done 30k so about finished off now and I've been looking at my options.

I have seen a few RTW write ups where they've used the YSS but none have gone into great detail about how they got on.

Looking at the shock it does seem about on par with Hagon http://www.brooksuspension.co.uk/yam...sorber-04.html

If you looking at Nitron then deal with them direct they are in the UK at Witney.

All I know about YSS shocks is that they are cheap, made in Thailand and the company has links with KTM/WP and apparently share an R&D team.

The YSS look like a bargain to me.

In same boat. Not enough info about YSS.

side by side the YSS looks better quality than the Hagon. I think there was only �20 difference between the 2. I've only used hagon in the past and didn't get on with it personally.

a couple years back when I had my Ohlins fitted with a remote hi/lo compression damping...
the guy had a Hagon in bits... the diffrents between that and a WP he also
had in bits was night & day...
Hagon had no seal just a Oring on the floating separater to keep the oil and gas apart... the finish on the valve piston body.. WP was polished the Hagon
was just as it came off the machine that made it... still a good finish but not polished..
just the little things that make the diffrents...
