About MSF

Since 1973, the Motorcycle Safety Foundation(R) (MSF) has set
internationally recognized standards that promote the safety of
motorcyclists with rider education courses, operator licensing tests,
and public information programs.

MSF President Tim Buche said, "One fatality is one too many and we
urge all roadway users to expect to see motorcyclists on the road and
respect their right to be there. Such an analysis could enable further significant gains in
motorcycle safety by providing a better understanding of which safety
countermeasures have been effective and what new countermeasures may
be necessary to reduce future crashes and injuries. A new standalone
classroom training module, Seasoned Rider, due to be released in late
summer of 2005, addresses the special needs of mature and re-entry
riders and includes an all-new classroom training video.
