ABSTRACT:
A motorcycle is disclosed having a seat suspension system that is designed to move said seat in the opposite direction, relative to the frame, from the rear wheel when the rear wheel encounters bumps. A structural member is pivotally connected to the backbone of the frame at a location above the motor or near there. This pivoting structural member supports the seat and other components such as rear lights, side panels, rear fender, etc. It is caused to move downward relative to the main frame in response to upward motion of the rear suspension, by linkage means connecting it to the rear suspension. As the motorcycle frame experiences sudden upward motion due to bumps transmitted through the wheel suspension, the seat moves downward at the same time to prevent those bumps from disturbing the rider.
