  • Control system for motorcycle fork
    Patent number: 7469914
    Abstract: A ride control system for a motorcycle having an oil-containing fork having an air space. The control system includes a control unit having a reservoir and a valve in flow communication with the air space of the fork and the reservoir. The valve is configured to enable air to substantially freely pass from the air space of the fork to the reservoir during a relatively low speed impact experienced by the fork, and to inhibit air from passing from the fork to the reservoir during a relatively high speed impact.
