Proposal to develop amendments to UN GTR No. 12 on motorcycle controls, tell-tales and indicators in order to make editorial changes and introduce a gear shift pattern that had been discussed but had been overlooked in the introduction of GTR 12.
100. The representative of Italy proposed an amendment to UN GTR No. 12 aimed at clarifying the provisions on the location, identification and operation of motorcycle controls, tell-tales and indicators. AC.3 gave its consent and requested the secretariat to distribute WP.29-157-10 with an official symbol for its formal adoption at the November 2012 session of AC.3.
28. The expert from IMMA recalled WP.29-157-10 (tabled by Italy in June 2012) proposing the development of an amendment to Global Technical Regulation (GTR) No. 12 on controls, tell-tales and indicators for motorcycles. He presented GRSG-103-10-Rev.1 amending ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2012/21 to introduce into the GTR editorial corrections and align the provisions with those of UN Regulation No. 60 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2012/20). The documents received some comments.
29. GRSG adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2012/20, as amended by Annex IV to this report, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2013 sessions, as draft Supplement 4 to UN Regulation No. 60.
30. GRSG also adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2012/21, as amended by Annex V to this report. The secretariat was requested to submit it to WP.29 and AC.3 for consideration at their March 2013 sessions, as draft Amendment 1 to UN GTR No. 12, including the technical report listed in Annex V.
