Brighter Planet is performing this calculation based on the following characteristics of this motorcycle as provided in the request:
| Characteristic | Input | Interpretation |
|---|
This calculation uses version 84177c7 of Brighter Planet's motorcycle carbon model.
Calculations are performed adaptively, so methodology will vary depending on motorcycle characteristics. Impact values, listed below, are based on a number of input factors, which in turn are based on others, and so forth. In each case, the methodology used in the calculation is specified, and, wherever possible, the source code of the method is displayed.
