It is also known as FTP-72 or LA-4, and it is also used in Sweden as the A10 or CVS (Constant Volume Sampler) cycle and in Australia as the ADR 27 (Australian Design Rules) cycle. [4] The cycle simulates an urban route of 7.5 mi (12.07 km) with frequent stops. The maximum speed is 56.7 mph (91.2 km/h) and the average speed is 19.6 mph (31.5 km/h).
The forward speed at which oscillations begin, at about 1 m/s (2.2 mph) in this example, sometimes called the double root speed due to there being a repeated root to the characteristic polynomial (two of the four eigenvalues have exactly the same value). Below this speed, the bike simply falls over as an inverted pendulum does.
It is notable that the pre-crash motion of the motorcycle or scooter was lane-splitting in only 0.4% of cases, in contrast to the more common accident situations such as "Moving in a straight line, constant speed" 49.1% and "Negotiating a bend, constant speed" 12.1%. The motorcyclist was stopped in traffic prior to 2.8% of the accidents. [4]
[citation needed] This rule, in practice, is a process for "voting the speed limit" by driving, in contrast to delegating the speed limit to an engineering expert. [62] [63] The maximum speed permitted by statute, as posted, is normally based on ideal driving conditions and the basic speed rule always applies. [64]
With power typically being the product of force and speed, a motorcycle's power and torque ratings will be highly indicative of its performance. Reported numbers for power and torque may however vary from one source to another due to inconsistencies in how testing equipment is calibrated, the method of using that equipment, the conditions during the test, and particularly the location that ...
There is no maximum speed restriction. A2 restricted motorcycle licence Available to those over 19 years of age, successful completion of the A2 test allows the licence holder to ride any motorcycle not exceeding 35kW in power and with a power-to-weight ratio below 0.2kW per kg. [ 4 ]

Otherwise, first electric vehicle to be considered for the position of the world's fastest street-legal production motorcycle, [37] [38] [39] to have won against ICE motorcycles in a professional road-based event and to have won any such race using only solar power.
