                      Proposal for a
                 COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC)
                             ON
          THE MAXIMUM DESIGN SPEED, MAXIMUM TORQUE
                AND MAXIMUM NET ENGINE POWER
            OF TWO OR THREE-WHEEL MOTOR VEHICLES
               (presented by the Commission)

                               EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
This proposal relates to the maximum design speed of two or three-wheel motor
vehicles (measurement method) and the the maximum torque (measurement method)
and maximum net engine power (permissible limit value and measurement method) of
said vehicles.   It forms part of the approval procedure for said vehicles
covered by a proposal for a regulation (framework regulation) sent by the
Commission to the Council on 3 April 1991.
These are requirements concerning the methods of measuring those characteristics
of the vehicles concerned which, together with the other factors and
characteristics provided for in Annex 1 to the proposal for the framework
regulation, are requirements which must be met if those vehicles are to be
approved and placed on the Community market.    Moreover, for reasons of safety,
the net engine power of all two or three-wheel vehicles has been restricted to
74 kW.
 In drawing up this proposal the Commission has widely drawn upon the
requirements adopted in this area by the United Nations Economic Commission for
Europe in its Regulation 68, the draft amendments to ISO standards Nos 4106,
4164, 7116 and 7117 and Directive 80/1269/EEC on the method of measuring the
maximum engine power of motor vehicles having four or more wheels.
 It should be stressed that the method of measuring maximum design speed is
particularly important   in classifying said vehicles as mopeds, motorcycles and
tricycles, where the maximum speed parameter is crucial.

market comprises an entity without internal frontiers within which the free
movement of goods, persons, services and capital   is guaranteed;
Whereas the methods of measuring the maximum design speed, maximum torque and
net engine power of two or three-wheel motor vehicles differ from one
Member State to another-, whereas those differences raise barriers to trade

3.2.1 The driver shall have a mass of 75 kg ± 5. However, in the case
      of mopeds, this tolerance is reduced to ± 2.
4.    Characteristics of the test track
4.1.  The tests shall be carried out on a road:
4.1.1 which allows the maximum speed to be maintained along a
      measurement base as defined in Item 4.2. The acceleration track
      preceding the measuring base shall be of the same type (surface

 ---pagebreak---                                 - 10 -
4.2.3.1. The two measuring bases L shall be equal in length and virtually
         parallel to each other;
4.2.3.2. If both measuring bases L are curvilinear in shape despite the
         requirements of Item 4.1.3., the effects of centrifugal force
         shall be compensated for by the cross section of the bends;
4.2.3.3. Instead of the two bases L, see Item 4.2.3.1., the measuring base
         may coincide with the overall length of the annular test track.
         In this case the minimum radius of the bends shall be 200 m and
         the effects of centrifugal force shall be compensated for by the
         cross section of the bends.
4.3.     Length L of the measuring base shall be selected in conjunction
         with the accuracy of the equipment and the methods used to
         measure testing time t in such a way that the value for the
         actual speed can be plotted to within ±1X. If the measuring
         equipment is of the manual type length L of the measuring base
         shall not be less than 500 m. If a type-2 measuring base has
         been selected it will be necessary to use electronic measuring
         equipment in order to determine time t.
5.       Atmospheric conditions
         -   atmospheric pressure: 97 ±6 kPa
         -   temperature: between 278 and 303 K

6.       Test procedure
6.1.     The gear ratio used during the test shall be that enabling the
         vehicle to reach its maximum speed on level ground. The throttle
         control shall be kept fully open and the enrichment devices shall
         be inoperative.
6.2.     Drivers of uncabbed vehicles shall maintain their driving
         position as defined in Item 3.1.3.
6.3.     The vehicle shall arrive at the measuring base at a constant
         speed. Type 1 and Type 2 bases shall be travelled along in both
         directions in succession.
6.3.1.   Testing in a single direction may be accepted on a Type-2
         measuring base if, owing to the characteristics of the circuit,
          it is not possible to reach the maximum speed of the vehicle in
         both directions.
          In this case:
6.3.1.1.  The test run shall be repeated five times in immediate
          succession;
6.3.1.2.  The speed of the axial wind component shall not exceed 2 m/s;

3.3.   Test conditions.
3.3.1. The maximum-torque and net-power tests shall be conducted at full
       throttle, the engine being equipped as specified in table 1.
3.3.2. The measurements should be carried out under normal, stabilized
       operating conditions with an adequate fresh-air supply to the
       engine. The engine shall have been run in in accordance with the
       manufacturers recommendations. Combustion chambers may contain
       deposits, but in limited quantities.
       Test conditions such as air inlet temperature shall be selected
       as near to reference conditions (see 4.2.) as possible in order
       to minimize the magnitude of the correction factor.
       Where the cooling system on the test bench meets the minimum
       conditions for proper installation but nevertheless does not
       enable adequate engine cooling conditions to be reproduced and
       thus the measurements to be carried out normal, stable operating
       conditions, the method described in Appendix 1 may be used.
       The minimum conditions which must be fulfilled by the test
        installation and the scope for conducting the tests in accordance
       with appendix 1 are defined below:
       V-j is the maximum speed of the vehicle;
       V 2 is the maximum velocity of the cooling air flow at the fan
                  del I very side;
           0      is the cross section of the cooling air flow.
        If V 2 >_ V* and 0 >_0.25 m 2 the minimum conditions are
       fulfilled. If it is not possible to stabilize the operating
       conditions the me.thod described in Appendix 1 shall apply.
        If V 2 < V-| and/or 0 < 0.25 m 2 :
       a    If it is possible to stabilize the operating conditions the
           method described in'3.3 shall be applied;
       b    If it is not possible to stabilize the operating conditions:
            i.      If V 2 >_120 km/h and 0 >_0.25 m 2 , the installation
                   fulfils the minimum conditions and the method described
                    in Appendix 1 may be applied.
            ii.     If V 2 < 120 km/h and/or 0 < 0.25 m 2 , the
                    installation does not fulfil the minimum conditions and
                   the test equipment cooling system must be improved.
3.3.3. The temperature of the (ambient) inlet air to the engine shall be
       measured at no more than 0.15 m upstream from the point of entry
        into the air cleaner or, if no air cleaner is used, within 0.15 m
       of the air-inlet trumpet. The thermometer or thermocouple shall
        be shielded from radiant heat and be placed directly in the air
        stream. It should also be shielded from fuel spray-back.

3.3 4.          No data shall be taken until torque, speed and temperature have
                remained substantially constant for at least 30 seconds.
3.3.5.          The engine speed during a run or measurement shall not vary by
                more than + 1 X.
3.3.6.          Brake load and inlet-air temperature readings shall be taken
                simultaneously; the reading adopted for measurement purposes
                shall be the average of two stabilized successive values
                differing by less than 2 X for brake load.
3.3.7.          The temperature of the coolant at the outlet from the engine
                shall be kept within +^5 k from the upper thermostatically
                controlled temperature specified by the manufacturer. If no
                temperature is specified by the manufacturer the temperature
                sha 11 be 353 k +_ 5 k.
                For air cooled engines at a point indicated by the manufacturer
                must be kept between + 0/- 20 k of the maximum temperature
                specified by the manufacturer under the reference conditions.
3.3.8.          The fuel temperature shall be measured at the inlet of the
                carburettor or injection system and be maintained, within the
                 limits set by the manufacturer.

                angle to the exhaust flange(s), manifold(s) or orifices.
3.3.11.         Where an automatically-triggered device is used to measure engine
                speed and consumption the measurement shall last for at least
                 10 s ; if the measuring device is manually controlled it shall
                measure for at least 20 s.

     During the laboratory tests in particular, when the engine is
     running the exhaust gas extractor shall not, at the point where
     the exhaust system is connected to the test bench, give rise in
     the exhaust gas extraction duct to a pressure differing from the

3.4. Tests
     The tests shall be tested at a sufficient number of rotational
     speeds to enable the power curve to be defined correctly between
     the lowest and highest speeds recommended by the manufacturer.
     That range of speeds shall include the rotational speed at which

     bring that torque and that power within the reference atmospheric
     conditions specified in 4.2.1. (factortX2).
     The power correction formula is as follows:
     P 0 mOi 4 x OC  2 x P

     MEASUREMENT OF TORQUE AND POWER VIA THE ENGINE-TEMPERATURE METHOD
1.   TEST CONDITIONS
1.1  The tests Intended to determine maximum torque and maximum net
     power shall be carried out at full throttle, the engine being
     equipped as specified in Table 1.
1.2  The measurements shall be carried out under normal operating
     conditions and the supply of induction air to the engine shall be
     adequate. Engines shall have been run in under the conditions
     recommended by their manufacturer. The combustion chambers of
     spark-ignition engines may contain deposits, but in limited
     quantities.
     The test conditions, such as the temperature of the induction
     air, shall be selected so as to be as close as possible to the
     reference conditions (see 4.2.1) in order to reduce the magnitude
     of the correction factor.
1.3  The (ambient) temperature of the air ingested into the engine
     shall be measured at a maximum distance of 0.15 m from the air
     filter inlet or, if there is no filter, 0.15 m from the air inlet
     trumpet. The thermometer or thermocouple shall be protected
     against radiant heat and placed directly in the air stream. It
     shall also be shielded from fuel spray-back. A sufficient number
     of locations shall be used to give a representative average inlet
     temperature.
1.4  The engine speed during a measurement run shall not deviate from
     the selected speed while readings are taken by more than ± 1 X.
1.5* The brakeload readings for the test engine shall be taken from
     the dynamometer when the temperature of the engine monitor has
     reached the set value, the speed of the engine being held
     virtually constant.
1.6  Brakeload, fuel consumption and inlet air temperature readings
     must be taken simultaneously; the reading adopted for measurement
     purposes shall be the average of two stabilized values differing
     by less than 2 X for brakeload and fuel consumption.
1.7  The fuel consumption readings shall begin when it is certain that
     the engine has reached a specified speed.
     Where an automatically triggered device is used to measure
     rotational speed and consumption the measurement shall last for
     at least ten seconds and if the measuring device is manually
     controlled for at twenty seconds.

1.8           Where the engine is liquid cooled the temperature of the coolant
              at the outlet from the engine must be kept within ± 5 K of the
              upper thermostatically controlled temperature specified by the
              manufacturer. If no temperature is specified by the manufacturer,
              the temperature recorded shall be 353 ± 5 K.
              Where the engine is air cooled, the temperature recorded at the
              spark-plug washer shall be the temperature specified by the
              manufacturer ± 10 K. If the manufacturer has not specified any
              temperature that recorded shall be 483 ± 10 K.
1.9           The temperature of the spark-plug washers on air-cooled engines
              shall be measured by a thermometer incorporating a thermocouple
              and a seal ring.
1.10          The fuel temperature at the Inlet of the injection pump or
              carburetter shall be maintained within the limits set by the
              manufacturer.
1.11          The temperature of the lubricating oil, measured in the oil sump
              or at the outlet from the oil cooler, If fitted, shall be within
              the limits set by the manufacturer.
1.12          The exhaust gas temperature shall be measured at a point at right
              angles to the exhaust orifice flange(s) or manifold(s).
1.13          The fuel used shall be of a commercial type and contain no
              further anti-smoke additives. In the event of a dispute the
              reference fuel shall be that defined in Council Regulation: (EEC)
              n*         , of            relating to measures to be taken
              against air pollution by two and three-wheel motor vehicles* 1 ^.
1.14           If it Is not possible to use the standard exhaust silencer a
              device shall be used for the test that is compatible with the
              normal speed of the engine as specified by its manufacturer. In
              particular, when the engine is operating in the test laboratory
               the exhaust gas extraction system shall not cause a pressure
              differing from atmospheric pressure by ± 740 Pa (7.4 mbar) in the
              extraction flue at the point of connection with the vehicles
              exhaust system, unless, before the test, the manufacturer has
              deliberately specified the back pressure existing before the
               test, in which case the lower of the two pressures shall be used.

(1b) The complete exhaust system shall be fitted as provided for the
     intended application :
     - where there Is a risk of an appreciable effect on the engine
         power;
     - In the case of two-stroke engines;
     - when the manufacturer requests that this should be done.
     In other cases an equivalent system may be installed provided the
     pressure measured at the exit of the engine exhaust system does
     not differ by more than 1 000 Pa from that specified by the
     manufacturer. The exit of the engine exhaust system is defined as
     a point 150 mm downstream from the termination of the part of the
     exhaust system mounted on the engine.
(2)  If an exhaust brake is incorporated in the engine, the throttle
     valve must be held in the fully open position.
(3)  The fuel feed pressure may be adjusted, if necessary, to
     reproduce the pressures existing in the particular engine
     application (particularly when a "fuel return" system is used).
(4)  The air intake valve Is the control valve for the pneumatic
     governor of the injection pump. The governor or the -
     fuel-Injection equipment may contain other devices which may
     affect the amount of injected fuel.
(5)  The radiator, the fan, the fan cowl, the water pump and the
     thermostat shall be located on the test bench in the same
     relative positions as on the vehicle. The cooling-liquid
     circulation shall be operated by the engine water pump only.
     Cooling of the liquid may be produced either by the engine
     radiator or by an external circuit, provided that the pressure
      loss of this circuit and the pressure at the pump inlet remain
     substantially the same as those of the engine cooling system.
     The radiator shutter, if incorporated, shall be in the open
     position. Where the fan, radiator and cowl system cannot
     conveniently be fitted to the engine, the power absorbed by the
     fan when separately mounted in its correct position in relation
     to the radiator and cowl (if used), shall be determined at the
     speeds corresponding to the engine speeds used for measurement of
     the engine power either by calculation from standard
     characteristics of by practical tests. This power, corrected to
     the standard atmospheric conditions defined In 4.2, should be
     deducted from the corrected power.
(6)  Where a disconnectable or progressive fan or blower is
      incorporated, the test shall be made with the disconnectable, fan
      (or blower) disconnected or with the progressive fan or blower
     running at maximum slip.

(7)   The thermostat may be fixed in the fully open position.
(8)   Minimum power of the generator : the power of the generator shall
      be limited to that necessary for the operation of accessories
      which are indispensable for the operation of the engine. If the
      connection of a battery is necessary, a fully charged battery in
      good order must be used.
(9)   Charge air-cooled engines shall be tested with charge air
      cooling, whether liquid or air cooled, but if the manufacturer
      prefers, a test-bench may replace the air-cooled cooler. In
      either case, the measurement of power at each speed shall be made
      with the same pressure drop of the engine air across the charge
      air-cooler on the test-bench system as those specified by the
      manufacturer for the system on the complete vehicle.
(10)  They may include, for example, Exhaust-gas recirculation
      (EGR)-system, catalytic converter, thermal reactor, secondary
      air-supply system and fuel evaporation protecting system.

       run at the full load fuel-inject ion-pump setting, the engine
      being equipped as specified In Table 1.
3.3.2 Performance data shall be obtained under stabilized operating
      conditions, with an adequate fresh-air supply to the engine. The
      engine must have been run-in in accordance with the
      manufacturer's recommendations. Combustion chambers may contain
      deposits, but in limited quantity.
 ---pagebreak---                               - 47 -
       Test conditions such as inlet air temperature shall be selected
       as near to reference conditions (see 4.2) as possible in order to
       minimize the magnitude of the correction factor.
3.3.3  The temperature of the inlet air to the engine (ambient air)
       shall be measured within 0.15 m upstream of the point of entry of
       the air cleaner, or, if no air cleaner is used, within 0.15 m to
       the air inlet horn. The thermometer or thermocouple shall be
       shielded from radiant heat and placed directly in the air stream.
        It shall also be shielded from fuel spray-back. A sufficient
       number of locations shall be used to give a representative
       average inlet temperature.
3.3.4  No data shall be taken until torque, speed and temperatures have
       been maintained substantially constant for at least one minute.
3.3.5  The engine speed during a run or reading shall not deviate from
       the selected speed by more than ± 1 X or ± 10 min~ 1 , whichever
        is greater.
3.3.6  Observed brake load and inlet air temperature data shall be taken
       simultaneously and shall be the average of two stabilized
       consecutive values which do not vary more than 2 X for the brake
        load.
3.3.7  The temperature of the coolant at the outlet from the engine
       shall be kept within ± 5 K from the upper thermostatically
       controlled temperature specified by the manufacturer. If no
       temperature is specified by the manufacturer, the temperature
       shall be 353 K ± 5 K.
       For air-cooled engines, the temperature at a point indicated by
       the manufacturer shall be kept within +0/-20 K of the maximum
       value specified by the manufacturer in the reference conditions.
3.3.8  The fuel temperature shall be measured at the inlet to the
       carburetter or at the fuel-injection system and maintained within
        the limits established by the engine manufacturer.
3.3.9  The temperature of the lubricating oil measured in the oil sump
       or at the outlet from the oil cooler, if fitted, shall be
       maintained within the limits established by the engine
       manufacturer.
3.3.10 An auxiliary regulating system may be used if necessary to

                Regulation (EEC) n° .... , of              relating to measures to
                be taken against air pollution by two or three-wheel motor
                vehicles.
3.4             Test procedure
                Measurements shall be taken at a sufficient number of engine
                speeds to define correctly the power curve completely between the
                 lowest and the highest engine speeds recommended by the
                manufacturer. This range of speeds shall Include the speed of
                revolution at which the engine produces its maximum power. For
                each speed, the average of at least two stabilized measurements
                 Is to be determined.
3.5             Measurement of smoke index
