Particulate testing has been successfully completed on two different two-stroke powered motorcycles. The results indicate that the amount of particulate material produced by motorcycles is no greater than that from light-duty diesel automobiles. This conclusion is based on the fact that of the two motorcycles tested, the higher emitter (Kawasaki KE-100) produced approximately the same amount of particulate material over the FTP driving cycle as a Mercedes 300D diesel produces. The amount of particulate produced by the lower emitter (Yamaha DT 100) was about one-fourth that of the higher emitter.
