CONSTRUCTION
In the front shock absorber assembly, a low-pressure N2gas sealed type construction is used to suppress cavitation and a multi-leaf type linear control valve is also used to attain linear damping force characteristics, realizing both driving stability and ride comfort.
Note
To prevent hazardous conditions, make sure to empty the gas from the shock absorber before discarding an N2gas sealed shock absorber. For details, refer to the Repair Manual.
The multi-leaf type linear control valve has a laminate-structure backing valve that enables damping force to be generated at lower piston speeds, compared with a structure that generates the damping force with only the base valve when compression force is applied.
