A motorcycle frame has an improved front and rear suspension system
incorporating two horizontally placed air bag suspension mechanisms, the
motorcycle frame comprising an upper support member having a front
backbone tube attached to two rear backbone tubes, a lower support member
having a descending front downtube attached to two lower frame rails, an
upper support brace attached between the front backbone tube and the
descending front downtube, a head tube steering member pivotally attached
to the descending front downtube, two rear upright frame members attached
between each rear backbone tube and each lower frame rail and a rear axle
frame member pivotally attached between the two rear upright frame
members to the two lower frame rails. A first air bag suspension
mechanism is installed between a front portion of the front backbone tube
and the head tube steering member in a horizontal plane to absorb and
dampen the vibrations and shock to the front wheel of a motorcycle, while
a second air bag suspension mechanism is installed between a rear portion
of the front backbone tube and the rear axle frame member.
