Emily from D2 Racing Sport, Taiwan has contacted me to tell about their lines of racing suspension for use to motorcycle few days ago. I asked for permission to use these images on my blog since the suspension offered by D2 Racing Sport is very different than what we see normally. Usually, we just see one nitrogen canister at the suspension, but D2 has create 2 nitrogen canister for their suspension to provide better setting and wide tuning ability for the suspension dampening from softest to hardest. It is able to be adjusted up to 36 different hardness(softness?) dampening level. It features the ‘Golden Included Angle‘ which lead to better critical point for the suspension design. I have emailed Emily and asked whether this suspension is available for Yamaha Lagenda 115ZR, and now I’m waiting for her reply. The technical features and specification are here:Quoted from D2 Racing Sport website:
1. This product comes with two pieces of nitrogen reservoirs, both of them can adjust nitrogen sideway knob and adjust rebound dampening knob. Two nitrogen reservoirs includes high compression nitrogen and low compression nitrogen. On the sideway knob can adjust high and low compression reservoir according to vehicle owner decide dampening and nitrogen (sideway) pressure. The most important is the high and low pressure bottles. The motorcycle owners may look for the best value of pressure value. In generally, One nitrogen reservoir can inflate one pressure. The motorcycle owners can choose adjustment which decided the pressure by suspension manufacturer. It’s tunable to change the value of pressure is the biggest shortcoming. If there is one nitrogen reservoir only, then the pressure will be the one only, even adding on 10 pieces adjust sideway knob is also only the pattern, will not have any function. With the damping measured that the testing may demonstrate completely adjusts knob to change the value. Therefore this is the D2 specialized team studies the double nitrogen cylinder (high pressure, low pressure) the reason.
2. This product is especially for amateurs or professional rider and custom made. Because of the Hi-low nitrogen reservoir, it is able to use in the street or the mountain road as well as the circuit. You may fill in the tuning program of your vehicle, the vehicle weight or each kind of different racecourse’s condition. We will customize for you without charging extra fee.
3. 36-way dampening adjustment from hardest to softest, sideway knob 18×18 –way.
4. This product is tested, researched and developed actually by many international riders. Our company engineer based on the racecourse result, the curve pastes the nature and then decided the final setting value.
5. Each suspension kit’s strut must be tested repeatedly by machine for 300,000 times. In additional, the products have to monitor temperature variation value strictly then after test on dnyo machine, we will enclose the Shock Dyno report and stamp QC seal conforming ISO 9001:2008 certification.
6. The product is covered by two-year limited warranty and three –year limited extended warranty.
