Dear Col. Crawford: Jim Downey of our regional office has forwarded for reply your lette of May 3, 1978, in which you asked whether a single beam headlighting system is permissible on mopeds.; The answer is yes. The portion of SAE Standard J584 that you hav quoted only establishes an option to the specific requirements of J574. Table 1 of J584 permits motor driven cycles to be equipped with a single (upper) beam headlamp. We consider mopeds to be 'motor driven cycles' as defined by 49 CFR 571.3(b) and J584 as they are invariably powered by a motor developing less than 5 horsepower.; I hope this answers your question. Sincerely, Joseph J. Levin, Jr., Chief Counsel
