Knott Laboratory provides forensic engineering and animation, Civil & Structural, and Fire & Explosion Investigation services to reconstruct accidents.
Motorcycle Accidents
The reconstruction of motorcycle accidents requires first-hand experience in the riding and operation of a motorcycle.
An understanding of engineering and physics is essential to any accident reconstructionist’s ability to interpret and analyze accident related evidence. However, in motorcycle accident reconstruction, the physical evidence is often misinterpreted due to a reconstructionist’s inexperience and lack of understanding of motorcycle dynamics. Therefore, the reconstruction of motorcycle accidents requires not only the knowledge and understanding of engineering and physics, but is also enhanced by first-hand experience in the riding and operation of a motorcycle.
The motorcycle accident reconstructionists at Knott Laboratory are avid motorcycle enthusiasts with extensive motorcycling experience. From cross-country touring to off-road riding our engineers have the experience to understand all aspects of motorcycle dynamics and handling. The combined training, education and experience of our motorcycle accident reconstruction team ensures that any motorcycle accident, or motorcycle related failure, can be handled properly and professionally.

[Richard,].. Your assistance in the case has been invaluable. I am very pleased that you were able to rebut the findings of the two State Police officers and the defendants expert. No one else was sharp enough to focus on the oil spill in the photos and it was gone when the State Trooper did his final report.T.B., Attorney, Massachusetts

I am a Community Association Manager and have had a few opportunities to work with Knott Labs and each time I could not be more impressed. They are very professional and down to earth, they really take into account their client and want to do what is best for them. When I need an engineer Knott (Cade) is always the first call I make!Anonymous

The work you did on the case was outstanding. Prior to going to the mediation, we sent your animation of what occurred to the defendants. I truly believe that your animation allowed the defense to see exactly what happened which, in turn, allowed them to appreciate their liability. Regardless, I think your work was outstanding and want to thank you.S.G., Attorney, Missouri

I want to express our continued admiration for the quality of Knott Lab’s work both in accident reconstruction & in the preparation of demonstrative evidence. On the basis of your deposition testimony & the animation of the accident, the defense admitted the negligence of their employee, that it was the direct cause of the plaintiff’s injuries.D.W., Attorney, California

I wanted to personally thank you for all of your hard work and dedication in helping to get the case successfully resolved. If not for your hard work, your expert opinions and your keen analysis on this case, we would never have been able to settle it for the amount and/or in the time frame in which we did. It was truly a team victory.T.W., Attorney, Illinois
