TITLE: FMVSS INTERPRETATION

TEXT: This is in further reply to your letter of December 6, 1973, in response to your phone conversation with Mike Peskoe on February 25, 1974. You indicated then that our reply of February 6, 1974, failed to define "lowest seating position" as that term is used with respect to motorcycles in Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 205 (S5.1.2.1 and S5.1.2.2).

We interpret the phrase "lowest seating position" to mean the lowest point on the uncompressed seating surface of the motorcycle operator's seat.

I regret that our earlier letter omitted this information.
