Abstract |
|
In today’s era where the population of motorcycles has increased highly compared to any other means of routine transportation, hence the steer ability, handling and stability become important aspects designing the vehicle. Motorcycles makeup a complex dynamic system that requires a careful analysis to understand their working and behaviour in varied conditions. The two wheelers are statically unstable and portray more complex behaviour dynamically. The relation of castor angle and trail has proven to be an intricate one yet very pivotal in defining stability of the motorcycle. However, stability is not only dependant on these two factors but also depends on the various other parameters. |
