ABSTRACT:
A brake on the front wheel of a motorcycle is associated with a member which is arranged for angular displacement relative to a front fork upon application of the brake. Torque exerted on this member upon braking is utilized, as through a leverage mechanism, to lock the pair of telescopic shock absorbers of the front fork against compression which may be caused by inertia at that instant. In another embodiment of the invention the angular displacement of the member results in the closure of a shutoff valve arranged between hydraulic fluid chambers within one of the shock absorbers. The front wheel brake can be either an internal-expanding shoe brake or a caliper-type disc brake.
