The 2015 edition of Milan-held EICMA, the most important Italian motorcycling industry trade fair, ended just a few days ago. Needless to say, Mupo had its own stand at the show where all its new products for 2016 were exhibited.
“Events such as EICMA allow us to meet both the public, individuals full of enthusiasm, and the industry’s major retailers and distributors”, explains Piero Rigamonti of Mupo Marketing, “so that’s why we have, once again, waited until the Milan fair to present some of our new products”.
Upsidedown 38
A fork specifically designed for use on minicross or pit bikes. Features stanchions with a diameter of 38 mm in hardened, tempered steel and sleeves in hard anodised Ergal. These ensure excellent fluidity of movement while keeping weight to a minimum.
The pistons, with a diameter of 22 mm, have specifically been designed for off-road use. The hydraulics allow adjustment of both compression and rebound on each stanchion. This fork has been designed and developed using 3D CAD systems and FEM analysis and has been tested on competition tracks.
HD1 – HD2 shock absorbers
A pair of shock absorbers for Harley Davidson motorcycles that improve both comfort and control thanks to the internal hydraulic system. Spring preload and centre-to-centre adjustment allow perfect adaptation to different on-bike loads.
Magneto semi-active suspension
Semi-active suspension systems based on electronically controlled magnetorheological dampers.
An innovative hi-tech product that combines both the control strategy developed by Gerardo Acocella and the quality/reliability characteristics of MUPO forks and shock absorbers. Thanks to magnetorheological fluid technology and the possibility of effecting real-time viscosity adjustments via the application of a magnetic field, Magneto is right on the cutting edge of motorcycle suspension, providing a system that automatically adapts its response to both road surface and riding style.
