Not only comfort, but also traffic safety depends on the choice of the shock absorber. The shock absorber significantly affects the control of the machine and the smoothness of the move. The main function of the shock absorber is support for constant reliable contact of the car of the car with the road.

You cannot judge the state of shock absorbers, focusing only on your sensation when moving. After the run of 20 thousand km, check the shock absorbers at the stand of the maintenance station.

Shock absorbers differ in composition of the working substance and the number of tubes in the structure. Oil shock absorbers are the simplest in design. The disadvantage of such shock absorbers is aeration, as a result of which oil is foamed and insufficient cooling. The gas-oils have lower aeration compared to oil. With fast driving, they significantly reduce body fluctuations. Single -pipe gas shock absorbers have high performance. They are often used on sports cars. Gas shock absorbers are effectively cooled.

If standard shock absorbers arranged you in all respects and are subject to replacement only due to the life-do not experiment. Just replace with the same model. The constructive qualities of shock absorbers and cars should be taken into account.
4
All four shock absorbers should be the same. If you decide to replace gas shock absorbers with oil or vice versa, change everything at once.
5
When choosing a shock absorber, take into account the condition of the roads on which you operate the car. Oil shock absorbers quickly fail and cannot cope with their task on bad roads. If you are a fan of fast driving and sharp maneuvers on the roads, opt for gas or gas shock absorbers.
When intensive operation of the machine, choose shock absorbers at firms that have proven themselves well - Kayaba or Sachs. At the cost of the shock absorbers of these companies are more expensive. But the long term of operation and traffic safety will justify the money spent. Choose shock absorbers that correspond to your driving style, the state of roads and models of the machine. Only in this case you will ensure the safety of movement and extend the life of the car.
