Abstract

Abstract: This research examines the ergonomie aspect of motorcycle in virtual environment by using Jack software 6.1 with Posture Evaluation Index (PEI) approach which can integrates the results of three methods: Lower Back Analysis (LBA), Ovako Working Analysis (OWAS) and Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA). The objectives of this research are evaluating the existing motorcycle design and determines the most ergonomic design that concern at handlebar height and distance between seat and handlebar. The result showed that the most ergonomic design of motorcycle for female rider is motorcycle that has 16cm handlebar height and 20cm distance between motorcycle' seat and handlebar, which have 1.45 of PEI score.
