Abstract
A motorcycle suspension system comprising an axle block on each side of the motorcycle, each axle block for receiving one side of a rear wheel axle, and each axle block rotatably connected to a motorcycle frame member with a bearing. Each axle block may be rotatably connected to the rear wheel axle with a bearing.
Claims16
An axle block comprising:
- a body configured to receive a motorcycle rear wheel axle in a first axial alignment along a first axis;
- a first recess in the body configured to receive a first bearing;
- a first through hole in the first recess aligned on a second axis, said second axis parallel to and spaced a first distance from said first axis;
- a second recess in the body configured to receive a second bearing;
- and
- a second through hole in the second recess aligned on a third axis, said third axis parallel to and spaced a second distance from said first axis.

An axle block comprising:
- a body comprising;
- a first aperture configured to receive a horizontally disposed axle on a first axis;
- a second aperture configured to receive a first horizontally disposed bearing on a second axis, said second axis parallel to and spaced a first distance from said first axis;
- and
- a third aperture configured to receive a second horizontally disposed bearing on a third axis, said third axis parallel to and spaced a second distance from said first axis.

An axle block comprising:
- a body having an aperture for receiving a motorcycle wheel axle on a first axis;
- a first bearing connected to the body and aligned on a second axis so as to provide a pivotal connectability with a motorcycle frame on a pivot axis aligned on said second axis, said second axis spaced a first distance from said first axis;
- and
- a second bearing connected to the body and aligned on a third axis so as to provide a pivotal connectability with a motorcycle frame on a pivot axis aligned on said third axis, said third axis spaced a second distance from said first axis.

An axle block comprising:
- a body;
- a first bearing having a first inner race and a first outer race, said first inner race and first outer race concentrically aligned on a first axis;
- said first outer race connected to the body;
- said first inner race configured to receive a rear wheel axle;
- and
- a second bearing aligned on a second axis for connecting the axle block to a frame pivotally about a pivot axis aligned on said second axis, said second axis spaced a first distance from said first axis;
- and
- a third bearing aligned on a third axis for connecting the axle block to a frame pivotally about a pivot axis aligned on said third axis, said third axis spaced a second distance from said first axis.
5 more elements
A motorcycle suspension system comprising:
- an axle block configured to receive a wheel axle on a first axis;
- a first bearing connected to the axle block, said first bearing disposed a first distance from said first axis;
- and
- a first rear-terminal frame member connected on its axle side to said first bearing;
- a second bearing connected to the axle block, said second bearing disposed a second distance from said first axis;
- and
- a second rear-terminal frame member connected on its axle side to said second bearing.
4 more elements
A motorcycle suspension system comprising:
- an axle block;
- a wheel axle connected to the axle block with a first connection, said axle aligned on a first axis;
- a first frame member pivotally connected to the axle block with a second connection, said second connection being a pivoting connection having a pivot axis spaced a first distance from said first axis;
- and
- a second frame member pivotally connected to the axle block with a third connection, said third connection being a pivoting connection having a pivot axis spaced a second distance from said first axis.
