Emceed by Perry King and Laurette Nicoll, the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame inducted its 2025 Class on Thursday, Oct. 23. The Class of 2025 includes Dana Bell, Chris Carter, Colin Edwards, Joe Kopp, Chad Reed and Ryan Young, all of whom completed the tradition of receiving their Hall of Fame rings and iconic gold jackets during the ceremony.
“Tonight, we celebrate the legends who have shaped motorcycling in America — the pioneers, champions, innovators and visionaries whose impact will be remembered for generations,” said AMA President and CEO Rob Dingman. “Each year, this ceremony allows us to reflect on the passion, courage and dedication that define our motorcycling community. But this evening is about more than honoring great individuals — it’s about uniting around our shared mission to safeguard the heritage of motorcycling for the future.”
The AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame also honored and recognized the memories of the Hall of Famers who passed away during the last year: Dave Barr, Malcolm Smith, Mary McGee, Mark Buckner, Richard Teerlink, John Penton and Norm McDonald.
