I recently asked Fournales for more information about their shocks, and have been talking with them since. When asked if their shocks offered adjustable damping, this was the response I got. Unfortunately there seems to be a bit of a language barrier, being as I don't speak French, and technical information is always the most difficult to translate.
I would never claim to be an expert on suspension technology, but I can't see how these shocks being air sprung makes adjustable damping unnecessary. Anyone else have an opinion about this issue? ----- Original Message ----- From: information To: Derek Baylor Sent: Monday, October 29, 2001 8:10 AM Subject: Re: Fournales for Yamaha GTS1000 Dear, It's is not necessary to adjust the dambing. Our shock absorber don't have spring. We have aire pressure and the danping depent directly from the pressure. Every model of ours shocks is developping for one model of motorcycle. Bests regards.
