A motorcycle fork is the portion of a Motorcycle to which the front wheel and the Handlebar s are connected, usually incorporates the front Suspension and front brake, and allows one to steer. In the case of a telescopic fork, it consists of two Fork Tube s (sometimes also referred to as forks) which hold the front wheel axle and a Triple Tree which connects the fork tubes and the handlebars, perhaps through a riser, to the frame with a pivot that allows for steering. The fork, along with its attachment points on the frame establish the critical motorcycle geometry parameters of Rake And Trail , which in turn contribute to Wheelbase . The front Brakes are connected to the fork, and act against a Rotor or Drum attached to the front wheel. The front fender is also usually attached to the front fork. |
