Since the suspension is originally soft, we installed it without orifice and pre-road as it is.
Cushioning has increased considerably when driving the OffRoad course.
Even in the case of a series of small gaps (ruts), there is no need to reduce the speed of the Large Gap.
Surprisingly good buy.
I changed the spring to a DRC spring to get rid of the OEM's soft, uncontrolled, sloppy legs, but
It's a bit easier to apply the load than before, but it's still floppy due to the lack of pressure side damping.
That's why we decided to install this product, which can adjust the pressure side damping force.
When installing, it is necessary to select the size and processing according to the car model because it is a universal product.
I'll talk about the process in the second half of the impressions, but the results of the test run after installation were generally as expected.
First of all, when operating at low speed on a relatively clean road surface, unlike NORMAL, the pressure side damping force is applied firmly, so that the damping force is not applied to the road surface.
The power to press the front tire to the ground does not escape and the grip and ground contact feeling are improved.
When the Gap is passed, etc., the internal Valve will open to release the pressure.
The feeling of being bounced around like I felt with the NORMAL has decreased and the Front tire feels more secure.
As a result, the front tire, which used to move sluggishly and restlessly when driving on unpaved uneven terrain, has been replaced by the
The bike now follows the road without any extra movement, allowing me to increase my pace without worry.
During the test run, I made a mistake in the initial settings and tightened the pre-road one more turn.
Even so, it was much more stable than NORMAL on a little dirt road in the neighborhood, maybe a little harder in the back.
This product changes only the pressure side while the elongation side remains dependent on the NORMALDamperROD Orifice.
In the case of DamperROD, the elongation side is basically against the reaction force of the spring, so the range of the stroke speed is narrow and the
On the other hand, the pressure side has to deal with various inputs from the road surface, from slow to sudden and large inputs.
In order to prevent the car from locking up under sudden input, NORMAL pressure damping is almost not effective in normal driving range.
This causes the spring to contract more than necessary in response to road surface input, and then it repeatedly tries to extend due to the rebound.
By making sure the compression damping is effective, Spring will not contract more than necessary, and the rebound of extension will be reduced.
As a result, a sloppy foot that moves up and down more than necessary is changed to a foot that grasps the road surface moistly.
The characteristics of a real cartridge can be made more finely, and in the first place, the extension side is completely different.
Performance-wise, it's not going to be Cartlidge Fork no matter how hard you try.
Compared to the NORMAL DamperROD, I think it's a good product that can do a large performance improvement at low cost.
In this case, I installed it on a KLX230, and the following modifications were required
DamperROD's Orifice Expansion Large (Cancellation of NORMAL Orifice)
Cut and trim the Spring for the entire length of the Valve (for vehicles that do not use the SP collar).
DamperROD I.D. and BodyQuantity:Production of collars to fill the diameter difference of Set diameter
The above is now required.
? I think that there is an idea that it is OK to ignore it because it is almost not damped originally, but
When the Release valve releases the pressure at the time of sudden input such as landing of jump, the pressure is released.
In order to prevent a sudden increase in pressure at the end, the maximum Large value is limited by the NORMAL orifice diameter.
The diameter and number of holes are selected to ensure almost the same cross-sectional area as that of the DamperROD bore.
After drilling the hole with a ball machine, I clamped it on the lathe and applied paper to get the BALI.
I think you can get away with Hand drill, iron file & hand paper if you try hard enough.
? After cutting with a sander for the required number of turns, sear it with a burner to make the coil at the end adhere.
This process will anneal the spring, so we only fire the smallest length necessary.
It would probably be better to re-temper them, but I don't think it would actually cause much of a problem.
Finally, you can put a flat grinding wheel on the Grinder to make the seat.
? As for the color, I own a tabletop lathe, so I can make a color of this level quickly, but
Normally, this is the most important part of the Neck.
This time, I made it not from Aluminum or Brass, but from a resinous material (strong enough to be used in GEAR etc.) that contains reinforced Glass fiber.
It is lightly press-fitted to the ValveBody to prevent it from coming off, and is sized to the DamperROD to prevent it from rattling.
This makes it easier to attach and detach when setting, and I chose resin so that I don't have to shave off the press fit tolerance severely.
When this product is installed by personal DIY, I think that the color production of No.3 will be the most Neck, but
If you have a gold processing shop in your neighborhood, you might be able to get a lot of requests from individuals these days.
Finally, my hope for the manufacturer is that, although the setting will be refined in the future
I'm wondering why there is no option for different rates on the spring of the pressure side Release valve.
The Rae Stick product I have installed on another vehicle came with three different Rate Springs.
When releasing the damping force at sudden input, the pressure value at the beginning of releasing can be set in Pre-road, but the pressure value at the end of releasing can be set in
After that, the release method (the rise angle of the pressure curve) can only be set by changing the spring rate.
Of course it depends on the future setting, but I think it would be good if there is a Rate difference in Option.View Detail
