Check.  The number of decelerations for the purpose of instrumentation checks must not exceed 20.  Such decelerations must be made from a speed of not more than 50 km/h during which the deceleration must not exceed 3.1 m/s2.

4.2                                      First Effectiveness Test - All Service Brake Systems.

         The vehicle will be deemed to pass this test if all the parameters specified for each set of conditions in clause 2.1 are met on at least one deceleration mode within a number of deceleration modes which must not exceed 6.

4.3                                      Effectiveness Test - Independently Actuated Service Brake Systems
         The vehicle will be deemed to pass this test if, when each service brake system is tested individually, all the parameters for each set 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.

         4.4                                      First Burnish Procedure

         4.4.1                                This must be conducted by making not more than 200 decelerations under the conditions specified in clause 2.1 such that deceleration must not at any time exceed 3.7 m/s2.  The 'Braking Interval' between successive decelerations must be not more than 1.6 km.  The vehicle must be accelerated at the maximum rate to the specified initial vehicle speed after each deceleration mode and maintained at that speed until initiating the next deceleration mode.

         4.4.2                                On completion of the First Burnish Procedure, the brakes may be adjusted in accordance with the 'Manufacturer's' recommendation.

4.5                                      Second Effectiveness Test - All Service Brake Systems

         The vehicle will be deemed to pass this test:

4.5.1                                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

4.5.2                                in the case where the motor cycle has a 'Maximum Motorcycle Speed' equal to or greater than 150 km/h, if the parameters for the fourth set of conditions are met on at least one deceleration mode within a number of deceleration modes which must not exceed 4, when testing is carried out for an initial vehicle speed within 15 km/h of 'Maximum Motorcycle Speed'.

4.6                                      First Base Line Check Procedure

         Under the conditions specified in clause 2.1, 3 stops must be made during which the deceleration must be maintained within the range of 3.2 ±ÿ 0.2 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
