PURPOSE:To improve the riding comfortableness while preventing the delay of damping force by having damping force univocally determined in accordance with only a piston position at the former part of a compression stroke following the detection of the full extension of a piston and determined by operation in accordance with the piston position and a piston speed at the latter part of the compression stroke. CONSTITUTION:A jump is judged by a full extension judging means 114, through the output of which the output of a switching means 110 is switched to the output of a means 108 of univocally determining damping force in accordance with a piston position X and kept during the former part of a compression stroke of a damper after landing, e.g., until a piston speed V is reduced to a preset value V0. When a piston reduction judging means 116 judges that the piston speed V is below the preset value V0, the switching means 110 switches its output to the output of an operating means 106 in accordance with the output of a comparing means 118. As a result, during a normal run without jumping, a means 112 controls the damping force of the damper 18 through the operating means 106 to an optimal value determined on data in a memory means 104 in response to a damping value found from the piston position X and the piston speed V. In this way, there is less delayed movement. |
