• The seat shall have room for the rider and passenger.
• The area in front of the rider’s seat shall have the typical scooter characteristic that is an ‘open’ space, or step-thru space.
• The minimum required difference in height measured between the bottom of the seat and the lowest part of this step-thru space shall be 100 mm.
• The area in front of the seat: The rider’s legs and feet shall be protected by a leg shield with a minimum width of 400 mm.

Sidecar

(B1)

Motorcycles with a Sidecar

Vehicles with three (3) wheels, making two (2) tracks on the ground, consisting of a motorcycle making one track, and a Sidecar for a passenger making the other.

Permanent Sidecar

(B2)

Vehicles with a permanent Sidecar

Vehicles with three (3) wheels making two (2) or three (3) tracks on the ground in the direction of forward travel, with a permanently attached Sidecar forming a complete integral unit.

If three tracks are made, the centre-line of the two tracks made by the motorcycle wheels must not be more than 75 mm apart. A track is determined by the longitudinal centre-line of each of the vehicle's wheels in the direction of forward travel.

A passenger may not be carried. A ballast of 60 kg must be securely fixed to the Sidecar.

Cycle-cars

(B3)

Cycle-cars (FW or RW)

3-wheeled vehicles making three tracks on the ground forming a complete integral unit and having accommodation for a rider and a passenger.

A cycle-car is a motorcycle with 3 wheels differing from a Sidecar in that 2 of the wheels are mounted on the same geometric horizontal axis. These may be on the front (FW) or rear (RW) of the vehicle and shall ensure the stability of the vehicle.

The ‘space’ for a passenger can be by the side of the rider but not necessarily in the same frontal alignment. It can also be placed behind the rider. A passenger may not be carried. A ballast of 60 kg must be securely fixed to the Sidecar.

Steering must be by handlebars with a minimum length of 500mm, or by a wheel with a minimum diameter of 300mm.

If bodywork does not enclose the wheels, they must be protected by mudguards.
