Abstract: A vehicle suspension system having a suspension member extending in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body for controlling the longitudinal displacement of a wheel, which comprises a shock absorbing means inclined forward or rearward and a resilient means for defining the resilient characteristics of the suspension member in the longitudinal direction. The resilient characteristics are determined to exhibit soft resilience in the direction of a horizontal component of a reaction force exerted from the inclined shock absorbing means and to exhibit hard resilience in the opposite direction to the horizontal component. According to the present invention, the horizontal component of the reaction force is largely absorbed by the resilient means. Hence, shock due to the horizontal component can be avoided and the riding qualities of the vehicle can be improved. In addition, the movement in the opposite direction to the horizontal component of the reaction force is suppressed by the resilient means.
