We have a voice in the decisions that are made regarding motorcycling, not only in Maine but also at the federal level in Washington D.C. UBM stands for ensuring your rights as a motorcyclist by fighting “anti-motorcycle” legislation and promoting “fair” motorcycle legislation. We defend your rights during Legislative sessions.

UBM does not advocate that you ride without a helmet, only that you have the right to make that decision for yourself. Although many people do not realize it, Maine does have an existing helmet law that requires operators with a learner’s permit, operators/passengers under the age of 18 and first year operators to wear a helmet. UBM encourages the participation and enforcement of this law.
