A tilt-decoupled steering device of a motorbike includes a handlebar bridge which receives a handlebar, a fork bridge which receives a fork leg, and a decoupling element connecting the handlebar bridge to the fork bridge. The handlebar bridge (11) is rotatable about a steering axis and is secured about a tilt axis orthogonal to the steering axis. The fork bridge is rotatable about the steering axis and about the tilt axis. The decoupling element is elastic and is designed to transfer a steering movement in a steering direction about the steering axis from the handlebar bridge to the fork bridge, and to compensate for a tilting movement in a tilting direction about the tilt axis of the fork bridge relative to the handlebar bridge via elastic deformation.

The present invention relates to a forecarriage of a rolling motor vehicle with three or four wheels, comprising: a forecarriage frame (16); at least one pair of front wheels (10′, 10″) kinematically connected to each other and to the forecarriage frame by a kinematic roll mechanism (20) which enables the same to roll in a synchronous and specular manner; a roll control system (100) comprising a rod (110) having a first (111) and a second end (112) opposite each other which connect by means of hinging means (101′, 101″; 102′, 102″) a first (60) and a second anchoring portion (60) of forecarriage (8) directly to each other. At least one of said first and second anchoring portions is subject to roll movements of said two front wheels. The hinging means are configured to passively follow the movements of the two anchoring portions. The hinging means (101′, 101″) at the first end of the rod comprise at least a first roll hinge (101′) which has its hinge axis substantially orthogonal to a rolling plane of the two front wheels and is connected to the first anchoring portion. The roll control system comprises a first damper device suitable to dampen—in a predetermined angular range—the rotation movements of the rod with respect to the first roll hinge at the first end (111). The above angular range corresponds to the angular roll range of the rod.

A handlebar fixing structure enabling a handlebar to be attached to a high position to provide high vibration absorbency. The handlebar fixing structure includes a handlebar, a handlebar post supported above a steering system, and a handlebar clamper for fixing the handlebar to the handlebar post. The handlebar clamper includes a first damper member and a second damper member disposed so as to sandwich a cylindrical portion of the handlebar post and the handlebar from a direction orthogonal to the vehicle widthwise direction. An elastic member is interposed between the first clamper member and the handlebar post and between the second damper member and the handlebar post. The first damper member and the second clamper member are coupled with each other by a bolt and include abutting faces for abutting with each other so as to receive an axial force of the bolt.

A personal mobility and a control method thereof may include a main body, a steering shaft rotatably coupled to the main body, a steering limiting device configured to limit rotation of the steering shaft, a posture sensor provided to detect a change in posture of the main body, and a controller configured to selectively generate a control signal to control an operation of the steering limiting device to limit the rotation of the steering shaft when the controller determines that the posture of the main body changes at a speed exceeding a predetermined speed.

A handlebar for a motor vehicle, in particular a motorcycle or a motorcycle-type vehicle, has a vibration damping mechanism designed to dampen a first vibration of the handlebar. The vibration damping mechanism is designed to detect the first vibration and is equipped with at least one actuator which is effectively coupled to the handlebar in a vibration-transmitting manner and which, in response to the detected first vibration, can be actuated to introduce a second vibration into the handlebar.

A front fork, which suspends a front wheel is a compression type and includes a pressure tank at a lower end portion thereof. The front fork includes, at the lower end portion, a caliper bracket which supports a brake caliper which constitutes a disc brake and a sensor mounting portion on which a wheel speed sensor is mounted. The caliper bracket includes a pair of an upper caliper support portion and a lower caliper support portion. In a vehicle side view, the pressure tank is disposed between the upper caliper support portion and the lower caliper support portion, and the sensor mounting portion is disposed inferior to or superior to the pressure tank.
