Technology of mono suspension

Most of the people around us doesn't know much about the mono suspension technology.They doesn't know what it means.For those who want to know more about mono suspension bikes and mono suspension technology this post is added.

Actually the name itself gives us the idea about it. ie, mono suspension bikes means....there will be one suspension to support it.When monosuspension is mentioned everyone should remember that it should be on the rear side. Actually i think there is only monosuspension technology is on the rear side only.On Indian roads it is correct.But i don't know whether there is that type of technology on the front side.

Should this monosuspension actually gives comfort for the rider?

If i am answering for this question, i should say "YES".Ya actually compared to the other type of ordinary suspensions, this monosuspension is much better....We can only say that it is only much better...If u are a long distance rider,even in the monosuspension bikes also u may be uncomfortable.....But I am also accepting another fact also....Not only the monosuspension gives the rider a good comfort but also it depends on the other elements of the bike.

In Indian roads there are not so many bikes having the technology of mono suspension....Some bikes which is having that technology are HONDA UNICORN,YAMAHA FZ 16, YAMAHA R15.
From my knowledge about Indian bikes i think there are only these three bikes having the technology of monosuspension. In this category HONDA UNICORN had implemented this technology since 2005. As everyone knows the real power of Honda, it is not a surprising one....
Actually we have to ask the question that why Honda didn't implement this technology before that.Its not actually praising Honda.....Everyone should think that...No other bikes hadn't even tried that technology since 3 years.... We know everyone should go in the way of a person, if he is a succesful one...Like that We know Honda Unicorn has a very great impact on Indian roads and it was really a succesful one in the category of 150CC bikes.....Anyway it is not the time to check which bike is better in the Indian roads.We should have to know whether this monosuspension gives the rider a comfort?

From my riding experience its very easy to say that monosuspension is better than ordinary ones for the rider.Ya...It should be given bold because for the rider it gives much comfort.But the person in the rear side it is not much better.It should be easily evaluated from the picture given here.





From this picture everyone can clearly see that the suspension is given only to the rider.So i had said that the suspension only gives comfort for the rider.

Also in the foreign bikes and also for the mud racing bikes ther is much usage of monosuspension technology than ordinary ones.In the racing bikes also this technology is used.Some pics of these bikes are given below.....



Anyway let me conclude for the above question. For the better ride and comfort with 100% sure everyone can pick up a mono suspension bike.It will be better compared to other ordinary ones.So Enjoy the ride.........

China's First Hybrid Electric Vehicle

Battery maker turned car company BYD Co. has launched China's first homegrown hybrid vehicle for the retail market, seeking an edge over its crisis-stricken international rivals.

BYD presented the vehicle, known as the F3DM, in a ceremony in the southern city of Shenzhen, where local officials have pledged to buy some of the cars in support of the project.

The vehicle can run up to 100 kilometers (62 miles) on its electric engine, and when it runs low on power shifts to a back up gasoline engine. Its battery can fully charge in nine hours from a regular electrical outlet, or much faster at BYD's own charging stations, the company said in a statement.

The car will sell for 149,800 yuan ($22,000), about the same as many Chinese-made mid-sized cars, it said.

Head to Head:

General Motors Corp.'s own plug-in electric car, the Chevrolet Volt, is due to roll out in late 2010. Toyota Motor Corp. also is pushing to get a plug-in electric vehicle to market in 2010, while Ford Motor Co., says it is five years away from producing them in significant numbers.
