Mupo Through-Rod cartridge technology for CBR1000RR-R SP1

Developed initially for the 2020 Honda CBR1000RR-R SP1, Mupo Suspension's new CSP30-R is an evolution of the new Through-Rod Technology cartridge that was introduced at EICMA in 2019.
Thanks to experience gained on the track, not least with Michele Barro (Team Barni), in the 2019 Italian Superbike championship - his fourth consecutive championship win - a new bypass system has been added to their 2019 Through-Rod system for improved fluid dynamics - delivering a "more homogeneous and progressive damping". 

The new piston also further improves the sensitivity of the damping cycle and the feedback that the cartridge gets from the tyre, giving the rider even more safety and feeling in the front axle. The introduction of new bushings and an updated sealing system is said to ensure maximum smoothness and reliability in all driving conditions.
Described as the result of over ten years of development by its in-house R&D department, Pirro Mupo's Through-Rod Technology has been tested, among others, by Alex Barros in Brazil and in a number of leading and demanding series and race environments in other countries.
Leonardo Borghi, Mupo's Director of International Sales, told IDN: "So far the results and feedback have been fantastic - everyone who has tried the CSP30 has immediately changed over to it from whichever suspension cartridge they were using before, and the opinion of racers is that it is the most advanced front suspension technology on the market. We expect the same positive response to our newly developed CSP30-R."
Through-Rod Technology is defined by the innovative way the piston rod operates - entering and exiting the body of the cartridge at the same time, avoiding gas pressure imbalances and limiting oil dilatation. 

"The compression and rebound damping are completely independent. This, together with the spring preload adjustment in both legs, makes finding the perfect set-up simple, fast and intuitive." Founded in 1993, 100% of Mupo's production is carried out at its 650 sq m headquarters at Castel Guelfo di Bologna - in the heart of Italy's famed 'Motor Valley' - and is backed by the resources of the Roberto Nuti Group - a five-company industrial group founded in the early 1960s that specialises in the production of suspension products of all kinds - from industrial vehicles, such as trucks, trailers and buses, to motorcycles and scooters.
