FRONT SUSPENSION SYSTEM


  1. CONSTRUCTION


    1. A mono tube type shock absorber with a multi-leaf type linear control valve is used.

    2. The mono tube type shock absorber ensures dampening at extremely low piston speeds, achieving a smooth ride with a natural and linear steering response. Additionally, a good dampening response and coupling of the absorber is ensured, restricting unnecessary movement of the springs in consideration of handling and ride comfort.

    3. A rebound spring is used in the shock absorbers. While turning, rebound of the inside wheels is restricted by the rebound spring, reducing vehicle roll to ensure controllability and stability.

    4. Low-friction hydraulic oil and resin free pistons with a sliding ring are used, achieving both a reduction of friction against the cylinder wall and improving damping force response, realizing excellent ride comfort.
