technologies is unlike any other suspension company around the globe. We are familiar
with the other brands and all other recent technology currently on the market.
From what we have seen at NOST we are the only company selling components that
are truly different than the stock or conventional off-road suspension systems.
The fact is even the nearly un-obtainable 5,000 dollar special works packages
are still using the very same shim configuration/3& 4 port piston designs;
simply with different shim stacks. The suspension industry as a whole has been
locked into the same technology since 1986, or 1987. While some of the suspension
industry leaders have made working configurations with REAL shim control systems,
the basic theory and designs are still very similar to the original versions from
20 years ago. While it is true these tuners have improved the current suspension
systems characteristics; the fact is, this is fine-tuning, not redefining.
The current suspension technologies that are in use by manufacturers and tuners
today are still basically the exact same technology from the 80’s. Interestingly,
the fact is many of these renowned suspension tuners either incorporate the same
or very similar shimming configurations in their custom suspension packages. Also
all the top suspension manufacturers are making almost identical compression pistons
and mid-valve structures. With almost every racer wishing he had an “other
than stock” suspension, this proves that there is still huge room for improvement.
At NOST we knew that suspension has to have real working parts that must exceed
the traditional piston and shim control. NOST recognized years ago that we had
to start the long development process of designing and testing completely new
technologies to obtain a functioning and duplicatable suspension system that would
meet our stringent and heretofore impossible goals. OD3
(Optimized Damping 3-Way Control) is truly a breakthrough
technology! With the stock suspensions existing shaft and body layout we can replace
the stock parts with the NOST OD3 system. The addition of the NOST OD3 changes
of the whole mechanics of the OEM technology and replaces it with a more sufficient,
controllable and functional damping control technology. The bottom line is the
OEM parts are limited by their shape and flow control dynamics. At NOST we have
heard from so many top riders that the revalving of stock parts continues to be
an exercise in compromise. Valve for the G-outs and jumps, and it is still in
the small stuff. The clickers may help for fine-tuning, but cannot change the
level of compliance which is determined by these again traditional shim stacks.
So each rider valves for how they predominantly ride, and they learn to compromise
and deal with the shortcomings of the required baseline settings. NOST OD3, delivers
such high levels of adjustability and control that with simple adjustments a rider
can change the very nature of their NOST suspension components. With the NOST
system a rider finally can adjust to the level that could only be previously obtained
with different sets of suspension. NOST has the leading edge to technology that
eliminates frustration, and allows riders to adjust the suspension to conditions
rather than adjust riding to the suspension! WORKS
suspension is definitely higher priced. If it were easy to make
suspension work better with “other than stock” components, then it
would be in the motorcycle when you buy it. The best suspension in the world is
still unknown, but it is definitely improving rapidly. The one factor that is
not improving rapidly is the way suspension wears on the body. It is obvious that
hard riding or serious racing makes your body fatigue at a certain rate. It is
also obvious that even the very best riders get completely worn down, even in
a 30-minute race. After watching the national circuit it is apparent that when
the best suspension is not used, championships are lost, even to the best racer.
I would be pleased to call this the invisible suspension nightmare. Until now
no one knew how to fix all the riders issues and suspension is beating the tar
out of almost every top rider in the world. I believe they have to over-train
to over come the issue. This is also is frustrating because the majority of racers
are under-trained. With the NOST OD3 system we can maximize the energy saved by
proper suspension dynamics and allow the bike to work more efficiently on its
own. Talented riders are more capable of adapting to partially developed suspension,
thus making it hard for them to impose to the manufacturer a complete fix. TECHNOLOGY
like the OD3 is not apparent to most engineers because of its complex pressured
pathways. This system has so many characteristics inside it is virtually non programmable
by a computer. Although it is simple to understand once it is developed, it is
not something one could look at and say how it works. The paths which the oil
flows through are relative to the speed and contrast of the controlling parties.
The mid-valve and the compression valve each do unique forms of control. It is
difficult to place a specific control to each of the parties unless one rides
numerous systems and can place that value at each individual area through the
process of elimination. This takes years of hard work and is only possible to
understand through organized and documented procedure. This is not something that
would be assembled by accident or by a hopeful theory. It takes almost 25 different
resistant features to create OD3. All of which are placed strategically. This
makes for a system that will keep you wondering for years as to how it works.
Although the technology is secret, it is completely available to use for your
pleasure. To the best of our ability we are telling everyone how it works and
trying to keep it protected. Hopefully the information we provide will influence
you and help you to see we are giving you a new and better product. Give OD3 a
try and we will make sure you are satisfied with our 30-day guarantee. |
