Motoinno TS3Motoinno TS3 Motoinno stands for their branding company (Motorcycle Innovation) and TS3 for Triangulated Steering and Suspension System. was build by Film animator and self-taught engineer Ray Van Steenwyk, 53, and lives near the famed motorcycling haven of Mt Glorious behind Brisbane. The Motoinno TS3 looks a little like a motorcycle that could fit perfectly into the dystopian world of Mad Max 4, yet it isn’t as confronting as some unconventional front suspension systems such as girder forks and previous hub-centre designs. The major difference is in the triangulated design which creates greater strength while cancelling oscillation harmonics by eliminating the high stress load on the hub-centre king-pin. His design also has a tighter turning circle than any sports
bikes with 54 degrees left to right instead of about 38 degrees for a
conventional bike. Corner lean issues have also been overcome. You can also dial in any steering rake you want (from 15-24
degrees) and Ray says the effect is opposite to conventional forks as the
steeper the rake, the slower the steering and vice versa. He says the “sweet
spot” is around 19 degrees. Ray says that if his design is taken up by motorcyclists and manufacturers, it would mean riders would have to un-learn old skill sets needed to ride around the inherent flaws of telescopics. We would “rewrite the rider training manual”. He says“You don’t have to flick the bike into a corner any more,
it just turns in. It doesn’t understeer, is less likely to high side or low
side, and you can hold a tighter line at a higher speed into, through and out of
a corner. The creators of the Motoinno TS3 suspension claim that the bike they tested was one second quicker PER TURN than a Suzuki GSX carrying the same rider.
