m/s2.  The maximum force applied to each service brake 'Control' must be recorded for each stop.  The average of the maximum forces must be calculated for each service brake 'Control'.

4.7                                      Fade Test

         Ten stops must be conducted such that the sustained deceleration of each stop is not less than 4.55 m/s2.  The sustained deceleration must be attained in the minimum possible time and must be maintained for not less than three-quarters of the total 'Stopping Distance 33/00' for each stop.  The 'Braking Interval' must not be more than 650 metres.

         The vehicle will be deemed to pass if the required deceleration can be achieved on all stops under the conditions specified in clause 2.1.

4.8                                      Fade Recovery Procedure

         Immediately upon completion of the Fade Test, the vehicle must be conditioned by driving it at 45-50 km/h for not more than 1.6 km.
         Immediately after this conditioning 4 stops must be made during which the deceleration must be maintained within the range of 3.2 ± 0.2 m/s2 under the conditions specified.  After each stop the vehicle must immediately be subjected to maximum acceleration to the specified initial vehicle speed and maintained at that speed until initiating the next stop.  The 'Braking Interval' must not be more than 1.6 km.

         4.9                                      Fade Recovery Test

         Immediately upon completion of the Fade Recovery Procedure, the vehicle must be subjected to maximum acceleration to the specified initial vehicle speed and within 1.6 km from the start of the test the vehicle must be decelerated such that the deceleration is maintained within the range of 3.2 ± 0.2 m/s2.  The vehicle will be deemed to pass if the maximum force applied to each service brake 'Control' is within + 90 N and - 45 N of the average of the maximum 'Control' force recorded for that 'Control' determined for First Base Line Check Procedure (clause 4.6).

4.10                                  Second Burnish Procedure

         This must be a repeat of the First Burnish Procedure (clause 4.4), except that:

4.10.1                            the number of decelerations must be 35; and

4.10.2                            brakes may be adjusted at completion only if no tools are used.

4.11                                  Third Effectiveness Test - All Service Brake Systems

         The vehicle will be deemed to pass this test:

4.11.1                            if all the parameters for each of the first 3 sets of conditions specified in clause 2.1 are met on at least one deceleration mode within a number of deceleration modes which must not exceed 6 for the first 2 sets of conditions and 4 for the third set of conditions; and

4.11.2                            in the case where the vehicle has a 'Maximum Motorcycle Speed' equal to or greater than 150 km/h, if the parameters for the fourth set of conditions
