PD Simplified : Motorcycle Suspension Explained | Part 2 - What Is Compression Damping?
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 01. 2022
- As Shumi explained in the first episode of this four-part series on motorcycle suspension, its job is to keep the wheels firmly in contact with the ground. In part 2, we take a closer look at the compression damping. Essentially, it is controlling the rate at which the springs compress. It gives control over how the spring reduces in length as the wheel climbs up a bump in the road. Not all motorcycles have adjustable compression, but there are ways to go around it. Shumi explains it all in this episode of PD Simplified.

Love the way Shumi takes a halt after completing a sentence, giving time to us to sync in.
Feels wrong to see these videos for free!! Great content…
Haha! You can always Like and Share them! All our content is free for the #PDarmy!
Shumi, the sensei, imparting knowledge like no other.🙌🏼 Great explanation man!🤘🏼 Waiting for the next one.🤓
Amen! Stay tuned for more!
Much needed series for new riders. Thanks PD! 😀
Crisp, simple and to the point; another one of the reasons that make PD standout 🔥
Now we know the answer to why shumi owns a multistrada :) fully electronically adjustable suspension !
crisp ! my engineering professor failed to explain same in his 2 hr long lecture. Shumi did it in 8 mins
Haha Shumi can be a very favourite and on point professor in engineering!!!Isn't it?😅
you are the best when it is explaining somthing.
Because of knowledge given by Shumi sir, I decided to change front suspension of my Interceptor. Thank you Shumi sir. 🙏
Another great Power-Pod. A mixed feeling of a friend telling you something their passionate about and a professor talking about your favorite subject. Thank you, Shumi and Team PD.
😌
🙏
Very clear explanation, thanks!
Gonna “mess” with my suspension’s preload adjustment setting tomorrow itself… in Schumi we trust!! 😊
This series is just amazing...
Awesome work guys.
Content level - ultra MAX Pro🔥🔥
Great explanation! Thanks!
We want more simplified videos💗💗💗
Coming! 😀
Dude...you rock !!👍
where did part 3 go? I only see 1, 2 and then 4. Really enjoying it though.
Simple and useful. Great.
Forgot to like the video came back and hit like button 🤗☺️
Was always worried about adjusting my d390 suspension if i mess it up..after this I need to give it a try myself...trial and error..is shumi's way..
Just remember to keep a note of the changes you make so you can undo errors
@@shu_mar thanks sensi
Except the rear preload you can't change anything without modding the bike
@@onlyudi6217 .
Hey team.. please if you can also have a similar session on idle rpm and topics surrounding that..
Basically to understand the correct idle rpm for each of our bikes
That's such an insight shumi... thx.
If you have to choose.
Adjustable preload and rebound
Or
Adjustable preload and compression?
I would have passed the automobile engineering subject. If this video uploaded just 2days before.... Damn it's much easier then the text book...thanks shumi😎
Splendid!
Hiiii PowerDrift......
Appreciate your efforts!!!!!!!
🏍️💥🏍️
1:41 thats what HE said 😂💯
Please talk about different types of handlebar and their functions
Can do!
@@shu_mar thanks sir
How does changing the oil quantity vary the degree of damping. I don't get it.
can you please explain how will changes in compression damping impact cornering stability.. Thanks
Can changing the fork oil grade can have a possible effect on Compression damping ?🤔
❤️❤️❤️ PowerDrift
❤️❤️❤️
I ride a Duke 250 aand it usually starts wobbling above 125 kmph. Will reducing the compression damping ( reducing the fork oil) help ?
Great content 👌👌👌
I have a question.
When I asked my local mechanic to adjust the suspension of my FZ V3 to a little bit harder setting, he said if we change it to harder/softer setting, then,
1. will impact the life of chain sprockets.
2. So chain has to be frequently checked or observed if it is getting tighter/looser or not.
Hence he said not to mess up with the tweeting suspension.
Is this true? Please share your thoughts.
I feel the suspension setting doesn't have anything to do with the chain and sprocket sets.
Because the tension in the chain is adjusted with the bolts in the swing arm.
I'm pretty sure tuning your suspension doesn't affect the chain and sprocket in any way.
@@yash9410503314 Yes, I too felt the same. Thanks for sharing your thoughts 👍
@@aniruthparamasivan3441 👍👍
I think your mechanic is illiterate regarding suspension stuffs .
Dear shumi can you please do video on various suspension in cars... And working of frequency selective dampers...
Hi Shumi, can you do a video on bike alignment.
Background: when riding my bike i feel they arent moving in the same direction. Feels like front wheel wants to go one side and rear is stuck elsewhere. Specially on roads having a bit of undulations. How do i know if its the rear wheel which is mis aligned or front forks or if its because i have added puncture proof sealant in my tube or if its a bend in my chassis.
Question: how to analyse and arrive at the what is the cause. The RE service guys never feel a problem in the bike no matter how many times i tell. The only solution is they adjust the T BAR a bit which i feel isnt the solution
I had once on an XC bike suspension that had two funny signs: bunny for high compression/rebound and turtle for low compression/rebound :)).....
What should be the idle interval in km of changing the fork oil?
Sir can u make a video of using a hydraulic clutch vs normal wire clutch. It is worth for installing hydraulic clutch on a normal bike???
I hope we'll see how to make DIY Suspension Tuning for the most common bikes with no adjustable suspension
Please let me know how can I increase the suspension travel, some say if we temper the spring at certain temperature and pull it outward it will increase the travel, but I think that isn't a safe way to do it.
No safe way. The only safe way to change the length of travel is to buy a new, longer unit. But this is a big change to make. I just wouldn’t bother with it.
@@shu_mar thankyou sir, we all are really proud to know you, I'll ride to your location and meet you in person one day ❤️ keep spreading you knowledge
Hi. I have a norm in mind need to understand. what does a Motor slip regulator do? Tks！
What's the thing with the different types of suspension? The Ola scooter comes with a horizontal suspension at the rear.
Hello Sir good evening
What about mono suspension degree between swing arm and chassis
Mr. Shumi sir with your explanation and creative content I'm changing into automobile mechanic for my machines. Thank you 😊 have a good day sir 👍🏻
Can we have this series renamed “Shumified”?
There is an art to set up the suspension ....not bounce the forks a few times.... in any case the forks are supposed to return and stop....and settle down a bit as well..but still want to understand the science, then study the Kawi kdx 200... that will simplify
Crazy how shumi doesn't wear a sweater in winter 🤨
Hey PD !! Why is it necessary to change the fork oil every year ??
Because fork oil wears out and sludge accumulates. Wear out = can’t do it’s job. Sludge = gets into things and stops them from working properly
@@shu_mar why Don't Authorised service center do it ?
@@shu_mar thanks brother.
@UCZwKlN5TsqGMlDnUo6KP9Mw yes...That's the reality of every Manufacturer...They do not follow service manual, I am experiencing it with My Ns200....20k km. Done .... A week back I got 6th service done....They din't check/do anything except changing the Engine oil...Lubing the chain...And changing rear disk pads!
@@nitin9837560 I agree to this, service centres have to really keep up with the manual. They look at me and say it's okay when I point out a job which was in the manual and not done.
❤️❤️
Please make something for us Scooter Enthusiasts also, i ride an BS6 125CC HONDA Activa !!!!!
Simplified 👌🏻👍🏻
Pls doo front suspension click settings video for apache 🥺🥺
Hi Bro, I TVS apache 160 4v special edition having issues with the clutch. While riding in 4th & 5th gear, there is a slight clutch is applied automatically while throttling, once we release the throttle the clutch lever released fully. The bike is new and the km driven only 2000km. Mileage is 35 only and max speed once we reached 105, it loss the power. Any solution, TVS mechanic not able to identified the issues. They try to change the clutch plates, but the problem not solved. Any solution
Mileage calculated in urban mode with 30 km average speed
My mechanic said if i do rear suspension more softer it will lead to breaking of suspension and i won't even notice when it broke😅
Why does fork oil needs to be changed ?
PD can easily list these simplified episodes at any online course portal and people will pay to learn these. Shumi is great 🙏
❤❤❤

Waiting for next episode 🧡😀👍🏻
Coming up soon!
As a Harley rider the only compression I need is getting my shit compressed bruther
Like first watch later
Shumi, does heavy oil weight help stiffen up front? Compresses with less resistance that i would like
21st!
Day 131 of asking PowerDrift to bring back Holy Shift Season 2.
Want to buy a super bike under 10 lacs which one do you suggest
I am 6'2
Need a comfortable ride without bending too much in front with normal foot pegs
Thanks
Nothing much 👍
What?? Adding More Fork Oil than factory Recommend will blow up the Oil seals in your front forks... wrong information Never do that.
Adding or removing small amount won't hurt. Does your tyre blow if you fill 1.5-2% of more air,does your engine blow if you fill 1.5%-2% more oil? While we know overfill of engine oil is equally bad as having less oil in engine.
Machines are designed to have some tolerance.
