ABSTRACT:
This invention is an air shock apparatus readily sold as original equipment or attached to existing motorcycles and operable to achieve an air cushioned ride. More particularly, the air shock apparatus includes a control and fluid supply structure mounted through a connector member to supply shock absorbing fluid to a front fork support member that is connected to a front wheel assembly of the motorcycle. The control and fluid supply structure includes (1) a reservoir tank to supply the shock absorbing fluid to the front fork support member; (2) a pump assembly to supply fluid to the reservoir tank; (3) a valve member to control fluid pressure in the reservoir tank; and (4) a fluid equalizer assembly to adjust pressure of the fluid to left and right sides of the front fork support member. The air shock apparatus is self contained and easily regulated for the best ride in regard to existing road conditions.
