■Through-rod pressurized oil reflux system
Ohlins steering damper consists of a piston [A], a shaft [B], an oil passage [C] in parallel, and a cylinder [D] enclosing them, with a damping force adjustment dial [E] at the end of the cylinder.
The adjustment dial is operated in conjunction with the adjustment dial valve installed in the passage to ensure a wide adjustment range, and the oil quantity is controlled by the mechanism part installed on the other side to adjust the change in oil quantity due to thermal expansion.
The feature of the new type is that a spring is used for the adjustment mechanism of the oil volume, so it can cope with internal capacity changes caused by any temperature changes more than before, and generates smooth and stable damping force.
PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) seals and bushings reduce the coefficient of friction for improved friction performance.
