Scooter Suspension Parts

Responsible for a smooth and controlled ride, the suspension system absorbs the impacts from road irregularities soaking up bumps and potholes. However, when its components get worn, the suspension cannot cope with all tasks sufficiently well, which results in a harsh ride, sagging, bouncing, and other symptoms. A faulty suspension often becomes the culprit behind knocks, squeaks, and other irritating sounds. If you own a three-wheeler like the Piaggio MP3 with its articulated quadrilateral setup, front suspension issues become especially critical.

There are various suspension designs, but a telescopic fork in front and a swing arm in the rear remain the most popular scheme these days, which allows for good handling, braking, and cornering. The rear suspension can use one or two shock absorbers, depending on a scooter's size and weight. The principal components of any setup are springs and shocks. While the former can serve for a pretty long time, the latter are not that durable by their nature. Filled with gas and/or oil, they employ various seals, rubber boots, bushings, and hardware, which tend to deform and crack over time. As a result, the dampers develop leaks, their inner components get contaminated, and finally, the shocks become useless.
