What Causes the Squeaking Sound in Motorcycle Shock Absorbers?

[Enid]

Motorcycle shock absorber noise is generally caused by severe wear of the rubber sleeve. Replace it with a new one or regularly add some lubricant. Related information: 1. The role of shock absorbers: Shock absorbers are mainly used to suppress the oscillation after the spring absorbs vibration and rebounds, as well as impacts from the road surface. When passing over uneven roads, although the vibration-absorbing spring can filter out road vibrations, the spring itself still has reciprocating motion, and the shock absorber is used to suppress this spring bouncing. If the shock absorber is too soft, the body will bounce up and down; if the shock absorber is too hard, it will create too much resistance, hindering the normal operation of the spring. 2. Matching of shock absorbers: In the process of modifying the suspension system, hard shock absorbers should be paired with hard springs, and the hardness of the spring is closely related to the weight of the vehicle. Therefore, heavier vehicles generally use harder shock absorbers. The device connected to the vibration-damping crankshaft is used to counteract the torsional vibration of the crankshaft (i.e., the phenomenon where the crankshaft twists due to the impact force of cylinder ignition).
