Characterizing a Test Surface for Motorcycle Side Stand
Retraction Performance Testing
Foreword—This revised document has also changed ply with the new SAE Technical Standards Board
Format. The Introduction has been changed to Foreword, Purpose has been changed to , and References
have been added as Section 2. All other section numbers have changed.
The retraction performance of a side stand/bination is related to the frictional characteristics of the
test surface. For this reason, it is important to have a standardized and repeatable method of characterizing test
surfaces used for motorcycle side stand retraction performance testing. This document describes a durable,
economical, and repeatable method to characterize frictional distinctions of pavement surfaces.
1. Scope—This SAE mended Practice is intended for use only in characterizing test surfaces used in
motorcycle side stand retraction testing (SAE J1578). The equipment and procedure described in this
document yields repeatable results in characterizing test surfaces in a way found to be related to retraction
performance. The test results obtained with this procedure do not n
