    1. A motorcycle suspension system absorbs vibrations to provide comfort for riders and contributes to good handling and braking. 2. There are typically two types of suspension: a pair of fork tubes for the front suspension and a mono shock absorber with swingarm for the rear suspension. 3. The front suspension diagram shows that as load increases, fork travel distance increases linearly. The rear suspension diagram calculates shock absorber angle based on various parameters like length, spring rate, sprung mass, and shock angle.

    Suspension:

    A motorcycle suspension system is such a system which absorbs the bumps and suspense for giving comfort of riders by
    absorbing the vibrations. It also provides good handling and contributes for breaking.
    Normally motorbike has two types of suspension
    1. One pair of fork tube for front suspension.
    2. Mono shock absorber with swingarm as rear suspension.

    Front Suspension:

    LOAD (N)

    Fig (a) Load Vs Travel Creo model


    Fig (a) shows the graph between applied load (X-axis) and fork travel (Y-axis). As the load on the front suspension
    increases, the fork travel distance also increases and it is observed that it follows linear trend. It is taken that 45% of total load is
    applied on the front suspension and the corresponding deflections in the fork is calculated according to the applied load. The graph
    shoes the linear trend for fork travel when there is an increasing rate of load for 5%.
