Abstract
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD AND ITS CONNECTION TO DESIGN LIMITATIONS OF MOTORCYCLES
The research discussed the design standards and their relevance to motorcycles for three companies, which included three continents in terms of design limitations for each company and their relevance to international standards. The study dealt with the design standards of BMW motorcycle according to DIN standards and the design standards of the Kawasaki company according to JIS standards and the design standards of Harley according to ANSI standards. The study concluded that: Aluminum was the basic material in the design and manufacture of model structures and frames, in addition to motors of different sizes and models, and the material was used in several elements of the models. This was due to its possession of several high-quality properties as well as the ease of formation the material possesses, and has obtained the international standards certificate ISO 16949 and the German international standard DIN-NA005-14AA. Standard systems and standards for human engineering were applied in building design units for sample models according to the user's dimensions and body ranges, through the height of the seat from the ground. As the low seat position of Harley's bike, which sometimes ranges from 76 cm to 67 cm, had an impact on ease of use for all users from the smallest to those with large sizes, so this feature is one of the design determinants of Harley.
