The updated suspension will certainly capture the imagination of street riders, as theHusqvarna 701 supermoto It uses a 48mm upside-down fork from WP Performance Systems, which has 215mm of travel. The forks have separate damping in each fork tube and, therefore, compression is damped through the left tube, while rebound comes from the right tube.
