'''Motorcycling advocacy''' (colloquially "bikers' rights" in the US) generally refers to the belief in legal rights of motorcyclists, either as citizens or as motorists, or as motorcyclists ''per se'', and to the efforts made to promote or defend those rights. There have been a number of grass roots efforts to advocate for these rights throughout the USA. |

Advocacy is carried out by individuals and organizations. One issue often in dispute is mandatory [[Motorcycle helmet|helmet]] laws.
