Are Our Motorcycles Causing Us Cancer?

Motorcycle Lawyer Norman Gregory Fernandez discusses Dale Chipkars Book on Motorcycles causing cancerI have read reports all over the internet about a book written by Dale Chipkar whose picture you can see on the left. As a matter of fact there are so many reports circulating around the Internet that I could not ignore it anymore and thought I would do a write up on the subject.

Mr. Chipkar claims in his book titled “Motorcycle Cancer, Are Motorcycles Killing Us With Cancers of the Prostate, Colon, Kidney, Bone, etc.,” that he has measured a surprisingly high amount of extremely low frequency radiation shooting up from our motorcycle seats. The radiation would in turn go directly into our bodies.

You can find Mr. Chipkar’s original press release and a link to purchase his book by clicking here.

He states that the radiation in question can be measured with an ELF/EMF Gauss Meter which he also sells on his website motorcyclecancer.com, but I am sure you can also purchase elsewhere.

Here is a direct quote from page 2 of his book; “Electromagnetic field radiation is an invisible phenomenon produced whenever there is current or electricity flow. A motorcycle engine involves a unique relationship with electrical systems and coils that generate anywhere from 10,000 to 70,000 volts of electricity during operation. Associated electric fields and EM waves are also discussed in my book. Throughout the electrical system, “oscillating currents” produce erratic, pulsing EMF radiation of varying frequencies. Most motorcycles have the battery, electrical components, modules, cables, etc. located directly under the seat of the rider! Extremely low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic fields (EMF's) have ruthless penetrating magnetic field properties. As you read the web links below, keep in mind that ELF EMF sources can vary but the detrimental principles involved could remain the same. ELF EMF radiation at close exposure is unnatural and over time could have devastating biological consequences. Detection and protection is our best defense.”

Mr. Chipkar claims that the radiation could cause cancer of the prostate, testicles, colon, bladder, kidney, liver, pancreas and stomach, as well as infertility, “sexual dysfunction, erectile deficiency and loss of libido.”

Mr. Chipkar also goes onto to state “A motorcycle is the only place on earth where our vital organs are so close to possible electromagnetic radiation.”

My take on this issue is that I do not know enough about the subject to say one way or another whether this is some kind of scam, or if there is real validity to Mr. Chipkar’s claims. I do know this, if there is a measurable amount of radiation shooting up from our motorcycle seats than there is probably some validity to Mr. Chipkar’s claims, and probably a real reason for concern. I doubt that radiation going into our bodies from the seat of a motorcycle can be beneficial. I myself had a friend from High School who rode motorcycles for many years and who died from colon cancer at a very young age.

I am calling on the motorcycle industry and other technical people to immediately research this issue to determine if it is a valid problem and reason for concern. If it is, than I am calling on all motorcycle manufacturers, including motorcycle seat manufacturers to put appropriate electromagnetic radiation shielding in our seats to protects us from the EMF.
