Right to Repair: You or the repair shop of your choice should have access to the tools, parts and technology you need. Manufacturers and legislators want to restrict your ability to service, maintain and repair your bike.
Right to Modify: the ability to modify and customize your bike is a fight the MRF has won before. In the 1990s the MRF defeated a proposal to limit modifications to “Color and Chrome.” They saved the aftermarket industry. They continue to fight for consumers rights to modify products they buy.
Renewable Fuels: The availability of fuel for use in motorcycles is under attack. The MRF fights for the universal availability of approved fuel blends containing no more than 10 percent ethanol by volume.
Internal Combustion Engines (ICE): Not only is fuel under attack but the engines that burn fossil fuels are being targeted. A push to ban the sale of vehicles with internal combustion engines is happening right now! We believe Americans should have the right to choose what kind of engine to buy and not to have our choice mandated by the government.
End of Life Directives: In Europe, “End of Life Directives,” require vehicles over a certain age to be turned in for destruction! Restrictive policy notions appearing in Europe can potentially pop up in the United states. The ability to own, collect, work on and refurbish older motorcycle is a fundamental part of who we are as motorcyclists. The MRF will battle any end-of-life directives in the U.S.
Protect the Motorcycle Ecosystem: Independent shops and manufacturers are a critical part of the motorcycle ecosystem. They provide choice and competition in the marketplace. The MRF believes we need to preserve the Lifestyle and culture of motorcycling. Independent shops and manufacturers must be protected.
