A study was conducted to evaluate the existing Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard for Motorcycle Braking Systems and to develop an alternate test methodology which resolves certain shortcomings thereof. Full-scale vehicle tests were conducted, per the existing standard, and the alternate test concept was developed and demonstrated. The study finds that a procedure involving a process of towing the test motorcycle does represent a viable approach suitable for adaptation in a next-generation rule concerning motorcycle braking performance.
