Suspension system is a type of structural equipment attached to the wheels of a vehicle for the purpose of reducing the effects of irregularities on road surfaces. This paper investigates the Magneto rheological (MR) suspension system in motorcycle and compares its advantages with the passive suspension system. Passive suspension element can only store and dissipate energy associated with local relative motion. Moreover its energy cannot be controlled as the suspension properties remain fixed at all time, unlike MR suspension which has the ability to overcome these drawbacks. The characteristic of the latter is related to micron-sized particles, typically iron, that forms particle chains, when appropriate electric field is applied. Two modelling approaches which are the Bouc-Wen model and Sim models, were used in this research. By comparing these two MR models and passive suspension system, it can be concluded that the Bouc-Wen model gives the best result. It is also shown that MR suspension systems reduce the displacement amplitude around 30% whereas the time settling is reduced from 10 to 3 seconds, compared to the passive suspension system.
