Suspension is probably the most
misunderstood aspect of motorcycle performance. This book, by America's premier
suspension specialist, makes the art and science of suspension tuning accessible
to professional and backyard motorcycle mechanics alike. Based on Paul Thede's
wildly popular Race Tech Suspension Seminars, this step-by-step guide shows
anyone how to make their bike, or their kids, handle like a pro's. Thede gives a
clear account of the three forces of suspension that you must understand to make
accurate assessments of your suspension's condition. He outlines testing
procedures that will help you gauge how well you're improving your suspension,
along with your riding. And, if you're inclined to perfect your bikes handling,
he even explains the black art of chassis geometry. Finally, step-by-step photos
of suspension disassembly and assembly help you rebuild your forks and shocks
for optimum performance. The book even provides detailed troubleshooting guides
for dirt, street, and supermoto—promising a solution to virtually any handling
problem.
