Abstract

A vibration phenomenon generated in the vertical plane of a motorcycle during high-speed turning has been analyzed using actual running tests and simulation. As a result, it was found that the phenomenon is self-excited vibration caused by the sprung part resonance and the unsprung part resonance of the rear wheel coupled with a frictional force variation in a contact patch of the tire. The simulation model developed reproduced the same vibration phenomenon.
