Design a new VFR - Suspension

What type of suspension would you like
Cheapest to most expensive option.

 

It can't be that pricey since the CBR600RR costs substantially less and it has fully adjustable everything.

KC-10 FE out...

How bout something thats like on the other Honda sportbikes, ya know something with adjustability please

 

I'll take a fully-adjustable rear shock and usd front forks with 320mm disk brakes, radial calipers and master cylinder, and SS brake lines, please.

 

Inline 4s are easier to make. But suspension, I agree, shouldnt be much more expensive. Compression dampening is simply another couple of holes and a couple of small valves.

Upside down forks, are the same, but upside down. They shouldnt be any dearer.

 

Except the 600RR is substantially lighter and doesn't typically carry a lot of junk. Heavier means it needs to be stronger. I suspect just using the 600RR suspension on a VRF would potentially get you in serious trouble. They go to a lot of trouble on the RR's to keep weight down so I think there is probably little room to play with in terms of strength. The VFR would probably need a specific suspension design.

Having said all that I still think that at the price of a VFR they should come with fully adjustable upside down forks and a decent rear shock. In my opinion that is the biggest weakness of the VFR.

 

The 600s USD fork design is much stronger, it would only need heavier springs, proper length, & offset to match the new VFR. Hopefully Honda will give us fully adjustable suspension, with USD on the 7th.
