BS ISO 8705:2005

This standard BS ISO 8705:2005 Mopeds. Measurement methods 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 moped and of the moped/rider combination. It applies to two-wheeled mopeds.

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.
