I came across a very informative article on shock absorbers. Though it doesn't compare USD type with the normal one, I'm posting this link in this thread because some of you might find it useful. All Things Motorcycle - 005: Shock Absorbers Aren't

Hi friends!

My pulsar 150 Dts-i 2007 model has completed its 45K ride. I think its time to change the shock absorbers. Because, on the dirty roads it is not giving the smooth ride as compared to other bikes. Could you please advice me on these:
a) Where to refill the nitrox gas in the rear shock absorbers in pune? How much they charge? How much time will it take? Is refilling recommended?
b) Where to get the new shock absorbers? How much it will cost? Is it recommended to change after a ride of 45,000Km?
c) Are the front telescopic shock absorbers get serviced? If so, where can I get that done in pune with how much cost n time?

I really need this information ASAP. I have been suffering from backache because of the bloody roads

a) Go to the service center. Costs less than Rs.100 and will only take a few hrs.

b) First do the re-filling. Then post the results.

c) IIRC, The springs inside can be replaced.
