petitioned NHTSA to decide whether

1983 Yamaha RD 350 motorcycles are

safety standards in the same manner as

the 1983 Yamaha RZ 350, or is capable

of being readily altered to conform to

those standards.

Specifically, the petitioner claims that

the 1983 Yamaha RD 350 is identical to

the 1983 Yamaha RZ 350 with respect

to compliance with Standards Nos. 106

Vehicle Identification Number, 116

Brake Fluid, 119 New Pneumatic Tires

for Vehicles other than Passenger Cars,

120 Tire Selection and Rims for

122 Motorcycle Brake Systems.

Petitioner also contends that the

vehicle is capable of being readily

altered to meet the following standards,

Pennsylvania (Registered Importer No.

R–90–009) has petitioned NHTSA to

decide whether 1992 Mercedes-Benz

250D passenger cars are eligible for

importation into the United States. The

vehicle which Champagne believes is

substantially similar is the 1992

Mercedes-Benz 300E. Champagne has

submitted information indicating that

Daimler Benz, A.G., the company that

manufactured the 1992 Mercedes-Benz

300E, certified that vehicle as

conforming to all applicable Federal

motor vehicle safety standards and

offered it for sale in the United States.

The petitioner contends that it

carefully compared the 1992 MercedesBenz 250D to the 1992 Mercedes-Benz

300E, and found the two models to be

substantially similar with respect to

compliance with most applicable

Federal motor vehicle safety standards.
