Abstract

This paper reports the results of testing conducted to determine the post-upset sliding friction factor on asphalt pavement for a sport motorcycle equipped with a full coverage fairing. A literature review revealed limited data regarding this type of motorcycle. Therefore, these tests were conducted and are reported in the interest of adding to the database available to accident investigators. (A)
