SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

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

(formerly section 108(c)(3)(A)(i) of the

National Traffic and Motor Vehicle

Safety Act (the Act)), a motor vehicle

that was not originally manufactured to

conform to all applicable Federal motor

vehicle safety standards 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 importation into and sale in the

United States, certified under 49 U.S.C.

30115 (formerly section 114 of the Act),

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 Federal motor vehicle safety

standards.

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.

Champagne Imports, Inc. of Lansdale,

Pennsylvania (Registered Importer R–

whether 1991 Yamaha FJ1200 (4CR)

motorcycles are eligible for importation

into the United States. NHTSA

published notice of the petition on

March 16, 1995 (60 FR 14318) to afford

an opportunity for public comment. The

reader is referred to that notice for a

thorough description of the petition. No

comments were received in response to

the notice. Based on its review of the

information submitted by the petitioner,

NHTSA has decided to grant the

petition.

Final Determination

Accordingly, on the basis of the

foregoing, NHTSA hereby decides that a

vehicle safety standards is substantially

motorcycle originally manufactured for

importation into and sale in the United

States and certified under 49 U.S.C.

30115, and is capable of being readily

altered to conform to all applicable
