BS ISO 9130:2005

This standard BS ISO 9130:2005 Motorcycles. Measurement method for location of centre of gravity is classified in these ICS categories:

• 43.140 Motorcycles and mopeds

This International Standard specifies a measuring method for determining the location of the centre of gravity of the motorcycle and of the motorcycle–rider combination. It is applicable to two-wheeled motorcycles.

Other measuring methods can be used if it is demonstrated that the results are equivalent.

The measuring results obtained by the method given in this International Standard alone (see Annex A) cannot be used for an evaluation of the vehicle stability because they deal with only one aspect of this very complex phenomenon.
