Motorcycles — Brakes and brake systems — Tests and measurement methods

ISO 8710:2010 specifies tests and measurement methods for service brake systems and, where applicable, associated parking brake systems of two-wheeled motorcycles (3-3), motorcycles with sidecar (3-4) and tricycles (3-5) which are intended for use on public roads, in order to establish uniform worldwide test procedures for braking systems.

ISO 8710:2010 does not cover motorcycles which:

• have a maximum speed of less than 25 km/h;
• are equipped for disabled riders.

ISO 8710:2010 sets out the following types of tests:

• dynamic tests:
  • dry stop test (single brake control actuated);
  • dry stop test (all service brake controls actuated);
  • high speed test;
  • wet brake test;
  • heat fade test;
• parking brake system test;
• failure tests:
  • partial failure test (for split service brake systems);
  • power-assisted brake system failure test.
