2. Motorcycle suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorcycle_suspension

   The most common form of front suspension for a modern motorcycle is the telescopic fork.Other fork designs are girder forks, suspended on sprung parallel links (not common since the 1940s) and bottom leading link designs, not common since the 1960s.

   While it may have an exposed spring near the triple clamp, a springer fork is distinguishable from a girder fork by its two parallel sets of legs. The rear is firmly fixed to the bottom triple clamp (usually brazed or welded). A short leading link holds the wheel and the forward leg which actuates the springs (usually mounted on the triple clamp).

4. Multi-link suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-link_suspension

   A multi-link suspension is a type of independent vehicle suspension having three or more control links per wheel. [1] These arms do not have to be of equal length, and may be angled away from their "obvious" direction. It was first introduced in the late 1960s on the Mercedes-Benz C111 [2] and later on their W201 and W124 series. [3] [4]

5. Jegs High Performance - Wikipedia

   Jeg Coughlin Sr. started JEGS Automotive Inc. in 1960 in a garage near downtown Columbus, Ohio because there was no source in the Midwest to obtain high-performance auto parts to modify hot rods. As JEGS became known for their full selection, the "garage" grew into a successful company.

6. Height adjustable suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Height_adjustable_suspension

   Height adjustable suspension is a feature of certain automobile suspension systems that allow the motorist to vary the ride height or ground clearance. This can be done for various reasons including giving better ground clearance over rough terrain, a lower ground clearance to improve performance and fuel economy at high speed, [1] or for stylistic reasons.

7. Trailing-arm suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailing-arm_suspension

   A "semi trailing-arm" (or semi trailing-link) is a common form of independent rear suspension on automobiles, particularly those with front wheel drive (where it allows a flatter rear floor pan). Leading arms are similar horizontal arms, perpendicular to the axle, but connecting the wheels to the vehicle structure via pivot joints to the rear ...

8. Shock absorber - Wikipedia

   It also operated in both directions. Motorcycle front suspension adopted coil sprung Druid forks from about 1906, and similar designs later added Friction disk shock absorber rotary friction dampers, which damped both ways - but they were adjustable (e.g. 1924 Webb forks). These friction disk shock absorber s was also fitted to many cars.

9. Camber angle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camber_angle

   In cars with double wishbone suspensions, camber angle may be fixed or adjustable, but in MacPherson strut suspensions, it is normally fixed. The elimination of an available camber adjustment may reduce maintenance requirements, but if the car is lowered by use of shortened springs, the camber angle will change. Excessive camber angle can lead ...
