Compensation

Total payment for participation in this research will be a maximum of $300 per year of participation, paid in several installments per year. You may be required to provide a valid social security number in order to receive your payments. Payments will be scheduled as follows:

1. After the system is installed on your motorcycle and you have completed all paperwork, including several questionnaires, you will receive $100.
2. A second payment of $100 will be delivered after the 6th month of participation.
3. During the 12th month, after you return to have the system removed from your motorcycle and complete a few final questionnaires, you will receive a final payment of $100. The maximum overall payment for those who complete all requirements will thus be $300 for the year of participation.

If you leave the study early for any reason, compensation will be paid at a prorated rate of $25 per month for your uncompensated participation up to the point of exit.
