| Abstract | Two-cycle spark ignited motorcycle engines are evaluated for exhaust emissions from the standpoint of both concentration (percent) and mass (gms/mile) according to current and projected Federal Testing Procedures for light duty vehicles (under 6,000 pound GVW). Seven two-cycle and one four-cycle motorcycle were tested for carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxide and dioxide using non-dispersive infrared, non-dispersive ultra-violet, flame ionization and gas chromatographic analytical techniques. The inconsistencies in the test method as applied to motorcycles are pointed out and suggestions are made for further studies. (Author) |
