TITLE: FMVSS INTERPRETATION

TEXT: Thank you for your letter of June 21, 1968, to Mr. George C. Nield, Acting Director, Motor Vehicle Safety Performance Service, concerning the mounting of the front side reflex reflector on motorcycles.

Mounting the front side reflex reflectors just below or immediately ahead of the front of the fuel tank, as shown in the brochures on your models C2TR. and F3, appears to satisfactorily meet the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108. The front side reflex reflectors shown in the brochure on your model W2TT do not appear to be located as for forward as practicable. A location corresponding to that shown for models C2TR and F3 also appears practicable for the model W2TT.

With respect to the requirements of Standard No. 108, I must point out that this Bureau does not issue approvals on items of lighting equipment or on vehicle designs incorporating this equipment. Therefore, the above comments are for your information only and in the way relieve the vehicle manufacturer from his responsibility for certifying that the assembled vehicle meets the requirements of the standard.
