This manual shows the dedicated biker what can be done to perfect the handling of a motorcycle. The author team covers all types of forks and shock absorbers, including standard and cartridge forks, twin-tube and gas-pressure dampers. Everything is explained in detail with numerous graphics and images: the three key factors of suspension, damping, and friction, suitable testing procedures for optimal tuning, and even the "black art" of chassis geometry. With the help of a wealth of instructive step-by-step photos, the removal, installation, and disassembly of forks and suspension/damping elements are demonstrated. It also addresses specific troubleshooting for handling issues on the road, racetrack, and off-road. This manual offers practical solutions for nearly all problem cases.
