Tier Motorsports displays single-sided FRONT swingarm of Concept R1
Tier Motorsports have recently showcased a concept featuring a yamaha R1, which has been redesigned with a single-sided front swing arm. The innovative design by Tier motorsports is aimed to break free from the conventional Telescopic fork front end suspension to a new vertical steering axis for the front wheel, which provides much more direct and responsive steering effect than is possible with angled forks.
The design also helps us to think of a virtually frameless bikes.
The new innovative design is made keeping in mind that the now used Telescopic front fork exert forces on the steering forcing the bike to dive forward when brakes are applies which changes the steering geometry and reducing the effectiveness while dealing with bumps and maintaining traction.
