    Abstract: A front fork in which a stroke amount of a spring leg that relies on an air spring can be detected precisely, wherein pressure leaks in the spring leg are detectable. The front fork has: a guide cylinder that extends from one of a vehicle body-side tube or an axle-side tube that make up a spring leg; a piston mounted to the leading end of a guide rod extending from the other one of the tubes; an inner airspring chamber in the interior of the guide cylinder; an outer airspring chamber, outward of the inner airspring chamber, in the interior of the vehicle body-side tube and the axle-side tube; first and second detectors for detecting pressure and temperature in the outer airspring chamber the inner airspring chamber, respectively; and stroke detection compensator for detecting a stroke amount on the basis of outputs of the first and second detectors.

    Abstract: An reaction force adjustment member is attached to a suspension including a cylinder, a piston rod which has a piston at one end thereof and which is inserted into the cylinder together with the piston, and a diaphragm which has one end fixed to the cylinder and the other end fixed to the other end of the piston rod and which forms an air chamber around at least the piston rod. The reaction force adjustment member includes a cylindrical member which is provided on an outer circumference of the cylinder surrounded by the diaphragm when the suspension is extended and compressed. An outer circumference surface of the cylindrical member has an uneven surface.
