Abstract
The techniques and procedures presented in this paper will assist the field investigator in conducting post-accident inspections of motorcycles. The information obtained from a thorough motorcycle inspection can be useful in analyzing accident dynamics, identifying accident cause factors and evaluating vehicle performance. Cautions and checklists are discussed which are intended to prevent the investigator from omitting important information or inadvertantly altering evidence.
