A2Difficulty 3/5

A motorcycle restricted to 35 kW meets the A2 power-to-weight requirement. To also meet the requirement concerning the vehicle it is derived from, what original power must it not exceed?

Correct answer

70 kW

It must not exceed 70 kW, twice the 35 kW in this scenario. The rule concerns twice the resulting motorcycle’s power, not a universal 70 kW limit for every restriction. For example, if restricted to 30 kW, the vehicle it is derived from must not exceed 60 kW. The 35 kW maximum and maximum power-to-weight ratio of 0.2 kW/kg must also be met; the restriction must be legally authorised and documented.
