lezione di tecnica da alex briggs, uno dei meccanici di vale:

U know when u read a MotoGP press release & sombody says "we have been adjusting the balance of the bike" Do u want 2 know what that means?


Balance 101: Ok. Try and stay with me. I'm going 2 call the bike a triangle. The
top of the triangle is the center of gravity (COG) of the bike. So somwhere
around where the riders knee is. The bottom corners of the triangle are the
front tire contact patch & the rear contact patch. Now let's say the COG at the
top of the triangle is in the middle, this means the front & rear wheel has
equal weight when the bike is stationary. Now if u want 2 place more weight on
the rear then u need 2 move the rear contact patch towards the front & more
under the COG. U can do this a few ways.

By using a shorter swing arm, by taking a link out of the chain or by changing
the gearbox so the rear sprocket is bigger. But there are other ways of putting
more weight on the rear. Buy moving the front wheel contact patch forward by
changing the adjustable front geometry. So picture the triangle now. Either way
gives u more of the available weight on the rear tire. All this in reverse will
put weight on the front tire. Are u still with me? ......hello....are u
there........

U can also move the rider forward or reward but this is somthing that once u get
him comfortable their is not much point stuffing with it. Now one thing I
haven't told u about is when the bike is under acceleration or braking. Things
start getting interesting with regard 2 weight balance. I might leave that 4
another night. (Depends how this goes over!).
