ABSTRACT:
A shock absorber link mechanism linking a rear shock absorber to a swing arm of a motorcycle is capable of varying the suspension height and the height of a vehicle. The shock absorber link mechanism includes a first link arm pivotally attached to the frame, a second link arm pivotally attached to a swing arm, a shock absorber link arm pivotally attached to the shock absorber, and an arm connecting shaft. A motor driven actuator varies the link ratio (height) and link form (load characteristic) of the shock absorber link mechanism by rotating the shock absorber link arm via a motion transmission member, pulley, sectoral gear and arm connecting shaft. Further, a sub-wire driven by the actuator compresses the shock absorber when the suspension is lowered.
