Technology for Measuring the Damping Force of Shock Absorbers and the Constant of Coil Springs Mounted on a Motorcycle by the Un-sprung Mass Vibration Method 2004-01-2068
Technology for measuring and diagnosing the damping force of motorcycle shock absorbers and determining the constant of coil springs when mounted in-vehicle is difficult. Resultantly, it is clear that only the damping force can be detected by eliminating the spring force effect and the un-sprung mass, when the displacement of the wheel is zero.
