SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Under 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(A), a 

motor vehicle that was not originally 

manufactured to conform to all 

applicable FMVSS shall be refused 

admission into the United States unless 

NHTSA has decided that the motor 

vehicle is substantially similar to a 

motor vehicle originally manufactured 

for sale in the United States, certified 

under 49 U.S.C. 30115, and of the same 

model year as the model of the motor 

vehicle to be compared, and is capable 

of being readily altered to conform to all 

applicable FMVSS. 

Petitions for eligibility decisions may 

be submitted by either manufacturers or 

importers who have registered with 

NHTSA pursuant to 49 CFR part 592. As 

specified in 49 CFR 593.7, NHTSA 

publishes notice in the Federal Register 

of each petition that it receives, and 

affords interested persons an 

opportunity to comment on the petition. 

At the close of the comment period, 

NHTSA decides, on the basis of the 

petition and any comments that it has 

received, whether the vehicle is eligible 

for importation. The agency then 

publishes this decision in the Federal 

Register. 

J.K. Technologies, LLC, of Baltimore, 

Maryland (J.K.)(Registered Importer 90– 

006) has petitioned NHTSA to decide 

whether non-U.S. certified 2009 Harley 

Davidson FX, FL, XL and VR series 

motorcycles are eligible for importation 

into the United States. The vehicles that 

J.K. believes are substantially similar are 

2009 Harley Davidson FX, FL, XL and 

VR series motorcycles that were 

manufactured for sale in the United 

States and certified by their 

manufacturer as conforming to all 

applicable FMVSS. 

The petitioner claims that it carefully 

compared non-U.S. certified 2009 

Harley Davidson FX, FL, XL and VR 

series motorcycles to their U.S. certified 

counterparts, and found the vehicles to 

be substantially similar with respect to 

compliance with most FMVSS. 

J.K. submitted information with its 

petition intended to demonstrate that 

non-U.S. certified 2009 Harley Davidson 

FX, FL, XL and VR series motorcycles, 

as originally manufactured, conform to 

many FMVSS in the same manner as 

their U.S. certified counterparts, or are 

capable of being readily altered to 

conform to those standards. 

Specifically, the petitioner claims that 

non-U.S. certified 2009 Harley Davidson 

FX, FL, XL and VR series motorcycles 

are identical to their U.S. certified 

counterparts with respect to compliance 

with Standard Nos. 106 Brake Hoses, 

111 Rearview Mirrors, 116 Brake Fluid, 

119 New Pneumatic Tires for Vehicles 

other than Passenger Cars, 123 

Motorcycle Controls and Displays, and 

122 Motorcycle Brake Systems. 

The petitioner further contends that 

the vehicles are capable of being readily 

altered to meet the following standards, 

in the manner indicated below: 

Standard No. 108 Lamps, Reflective 

Devices and Associated Equipment: 

installation of the following U.S.- 

certified components on vehicles not 

already so equipped: (a) Headlamp; (b) 

front and rear side-mounted reflex 

reflectors; (c) rear-mounted reflex 

reflector; (d) rear turn signal lamps; (e) 

stoplamp; (f) taillamp; and (g) license 

plate lamp. 

Standard No. 120 Tire Selection and 

Rims for Vehicles other than Passenger 

Cars: installation of a tire information 

placard. 

Standard No. 205 Glazing Materials: 

inspection of all vehicles, and removal 

of noncompliant glazing or replacement 

of the glazing with U.S.-certified 

components on vehicles that are not 

already so equipped. 

All comments received before the 

close of business on the closing date 

indicated above will be considered, and 

will be available for examination in the 

docket at the above addresses both 

before and after that date. To the extent 

possible, comments filed after the 

closing date will also be considered. 

Notice of final action on the petition 

will be published in the Federal 

Register pursuant to the authority 

indicated below. 

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(A) and 

(b)(1); 49 CFR 593.8; delegations of authority
