Abstract: A snowmobile includes a chassis, at least one ski, and a skid frame that includes one or more slide rails extending longitudinally, rear idler wheels, upper idler wheels, and a rear suspension. The rear suspension may further include a flexible, composite member, a rear shock connected between the one or more slide rails and the upper cross member, a rear shock link, a rear cross member connected between the one or more slide rails and a lower shock pivot member pivotally connected to the rear cross member. The rear shock is connected to a rear portion of the lower shock pivot member and the rear shock link is connected via a spherical pivot joint to a forward end of the lower shock pivot member. The flexible, composite member is coupled at a first end to the one or more slide rails and at a second end to the chassis.

Abstract: This disclosure is directed to devices and techniques for improved handlebar risers. According to various aspects of this disclosure, a handlebar riser includes a first component and a second component. The first component includes a first steering column mounting channel, and a first handlebar mounting channel. The second component includes a second steering column mounting channel, and a second handlebar mounting channel. The first component and second component are sized, shaped, and arranged such that when respective abutment surfaces of the first and second components are placed together, the first and second steering column mounting channel form a first channel that substantially surrounds at least part of a vehicle steering column, and the first and second handlebar mounting channel forms a second channel that substantially surrounds at least part of a vehicle handlebar. The first and second components are mechanically coupleable to one another.
