Motorcycle with lateral shock-absorbing device

A motorcycle comprising:

• a frame having a median plane,
• one front wheel and one rear wheel, each wheel comprising a hub with its own longitudinal spindle onto which is fitted a rim carrying a tyre, said hub being associated with a fork and at least one brake disc or similar device of a braking system of the vehicle,
• said rim having a cylindrical portion fitted onto said hub, the hub having at one of its first lateral ends a protruding collar located at a distance from a corresponding first end of said cylindrical portion,
• the second end of said hub cooperating with a flange also having a collar located at a distance from a second end of said cylindrical portion,
• there being between said ends of the cylindrical portion of the rim and the above-mentioned collars of the hub and of the flange elastically deformable elements capable of absorbing stresses directed in lateral directions in relation to the median plane of the frame,
• wherein said elastically deformable elements comprise at least one pair of shock-absorbing elements located between the cylindrical portion of the rim and said collars of the hub and the flange.
