A linkage front wheel (11) suspension system for two-wheeled vehicles comprising of a control arm (4) hinged with the body (1) of the vehicle, fork member (2), and steering member (3). An upper ball joint (6) connects said steering member (3) to the body (1) of the vehicle and a lower ball joint (8) connects the outer end of said control arm (4) with said fork member (2). Fork member extends upwards and rearwards from said lower ball joint (8) to hinge (10) with said steering member (3). Steering member (3) extends upwards and forwards from this pivot point to said upper ball joint (6). A method of steering control (5) connects with said steering member (3). Means of springing/dampening (9) connects with at least one of the said steering/suspension members. Said suspension system can utilise a lighter design of frame (1), provide superior road holding and can have reduced compression when front wheel braking. |
