The Chicago Chapter of ABATE of Illinois was founded in 1985 to:
  • Actively engage in the political process by supporting laws and regulations that protect the rights of motorcyclists, and opposing laws and regulations that infringe on motorcyclists' rights.
  • Help prevent motorcycle accidents through Rider Education and Motorcycle Awareness programs.
  • Foster political awareness and political involvement within our membership.
  • Promote a positive image of the motorcycling community to the general public.
