What Causes Poor Rebound in Motorcycle Suspension?
1 Answers
Poor rebound in motorcycle suspension is caused by a broken or overly soft suspension spring. Inverted Suspension: Inverted suspension provides greater support to the vehicle body, which is beneficial for extreme driving and cornering. In the event of a collision, due to its strong rigidity, the triple clamp or frame is more likely to deform, which is the opposite of conventional suspension. The spring is less likely to be damaged in a fall. The piston moves upward from below. Conventional Suspension: It is thinner at the top and thicker at the bottom, with the mechanical structure of the suspension located below. It has a relatively longer travel, a simple structure, and is less prone to oil leakage. In a frontal collision, the suspension usually deforms, while the triple clamp is less likely to be damaged. However, its performance in motion is average, and it has some impact on the rigidity of the vehicle body. The spring is more likely to be damaged in a fall. The piston moves downward from above. Motorcycle Suspension: The function of motorcycle suspension is to elastically connect the frame and the wheels, absorbing and mitigating the impact and vibrations from uneven road surfaces on the frame. If the suspension is too hard, the vehicle will vibrate severely, and the rider will constantly experience shocks. If it is too soft, the vibration frequency and amplitude will make the rider uncomfortable.
