About, contact and editorial policy

Who we are

IMR Awards (imrawards.com) is an independent publication based in Los Angeles, USA, run by its editorial team. It is not owned by, or affiliated with, any vehicle manufacturer.

What we publish

IMR Awards records motorcycles recognised by established award programmes (Red Dot, iF Design, MCN, AMCN, The Quail, A' Design and Gold Seal). It does not invent or rank winners; every listing links to its public source.

Editorial standards

• Facts are sourced. Specifications, prices and records come from manufacturer press material or established publications, and every winner page lists its sources.
• Provisional results are labelled. Winners not yet confirmed are marked provisional until judging is final.
• Independence. Manufacturers do not review or approve copy before publication, and no payment influences results or coverage.
• Images. Manufacturer and Wikimedia Commons images are credited on each page; manufacturer images are removed on request.
• Dates. Each article shows its publication date, and its structured data records when it was last updated.

Corrections

If you spot an error, tell us using our contact form. We check the claim against the original source and correct the page, updating its modified date.
