We wish to thank the Edwards Law Firm, a long supporter of motorcycle safety, for making this website possible.
This website is dedicated to sharing information about motorcycle safety generally and specifically about rider safety as it relates to recognizing, avoiding and dealing with defective motorcycles and accessories. Currently we are receiving many reports of sudden tire deflations, especially Goodyear Dunlop D402s. Among the victims is Norman, a Toledo, Ohio man who reports he’s experienced TWO blowouts of D402 tires, just a year apart! See his story and other recent reports here.

Our goal is to provide up-to-date information about motorcycle-related defects as a way to help keep riders safe.
