ABATE of Idaho
ABATE of Idaho is an Idaho SMRO (State Motorcyclist Rights Organization). Our objectives are:
To join the general public together in an effort to stop unreasonable and unfair legislation and practices that diminish the rights of the motorcyclists of Idaho
To end the discrimination experienced by motorcyclists
To organize and conduct seminars, conferences, research, discussion groups, and publications on the subject of motorcycle rights
ABATE as a whole
ABATE was originally formed in 1971 under the name National Custom Cycle Association (NCCA).
The logo?
Lou Kimzey (regarded as ABATE's founder -- see more in the ABATE as a whole section) came across the ABATE eagle logo in an old civil war publication. The eagle is one of the largest birds and a strong flier. It has long been used as a sign of power, courage, and freedom. The American bald eagle is not only our logo but it is the official emblem of the United States. Its picture is on the Great Seal of the U.S., the President’s flag, some coins and paper money. Our logo with the 13 star shield is truly worthy of our cause, and our founder’s foresight.
