In response to the Inquiry of June 2005, the Expert Committee on Motor Vehicle Noise,
established under the Noise and Vibration Committee of the Central Environment Council,
has been considering the Future Policy for Motor Vehicle Noise Reduction, including the
measures for reduction of the in-use vehicle noise.

Comparison between New Acceleration Test Method (ISO 362-2) and Actual
Driving Condition
To verify the validity of the current acceleration test method (so called TRIAS) and new
method (ISO 362-2) in ECE R41-04, MOE conducted a survey of actual driving
conditions of and the acceleration tests on motorcycle in urban area.

As ISO 362-2 is developed with driving data of countries including Japan, the following results
were obtained from the comparison with domestic driving conditions:
Compared to TRIAS, the ISO 362-2 test speed is closer to the one that is frequently used in the
actual driving in Japan.
In the case of Class 2 and 3 motorcycles, WOT acceleration used in TRIAS deviates greatly from
acceleration in the actual driving. On the other hand, the ISO 362-2 targeted acceleration is
appropriate for the upper limit of acceleration used in the actual driving.
For manual-transmission motorcycles due to ISO 362-2 reference WOT acceleration, a lower
gear among others used in the actual driving is selected.

Noise Level
Under ISO 362-2, Lwot and Lcrs are measured to calculate Lurban by linear
interpolation for evaluation of noise emissions. Therefore, it is necessary to
reduce both Lwot and Lcrs in order to reduce Lurban.
As a result of a survey, it was found that the effect of reduction in both
acceleration noise and cruising noise was almost the same, assuming the
measures for reducing noise from power unit and power train were adopted. In
addition, tire noise emissions from motorcycles are found negligible.
For rationalizing the regulatory procedures, it is considered appropriate to
abolish the cruising noise regulation for motorcycles.
