    • @SmallBikeStuff

  • @ramishrambarran3998
    @ramishrambarran3998 Před 10 měsíci +1

    The Anti-Dive System.
    When the bike is moving and you apply the front brake, logically the front of the bike will dip, as the fork tubes goes into the slider tubes, compressing the long springs.
    With the anti-dive system, the hydraulic pressure from the other brake-line that goes to the fork, closes a valve in the suspension. When that valve closes, it prevents hydraulic oil movement in the slider tubes, which in turn does not allow the fork tubes to move downwards. So there is no massive dive.
    The bigger bikes used to have that unit on both forks. The unit had fins to dissipate any heat generated.

      The exhaust is restricted at the port end usually. Replacing with expansion pipe will work. The inlet valve is restricted also and on some bikes can be overcome easily. Usually a short via the loom. But obviously you’ve got to check the method for this bike precisely.
