Does anyone know if you can still get a multi-year membership with HOG? I always opted for the 3-year memberships at if I remember a $120 cost. I just received my renewal notice, it listed only a one-year option at $59. I'd rather do the 3 year if it's still available. Thank you...
I called HOG today, some guy I could hardly understand said they no longer offer the 3-year rate, one year at $60. Not sure if I get enough (anything?) from them to justify continued membership, I'll see.
I bought the Lifetime membership about 20 years ago, they are still honoring it. But besides the pins I get at rallies, not sure what they are doing for us. I did get a discount at the museum over the Summer. I still miss the hard copy map every year. But for me it is no longer costing me anything, so.................

I can give you my personal account of what a HOG membership can get you and how to make it pay for itself. Send me an PM and I'll give you my .
On another note, I've had a conversation with someone high in the HOG/HD food chain and "they" are trying to bring a modified version of Life Membership back. Cross your fingers and call 1-800-CLUBHOG and ask for a lifetime or multiyear membership to be brought back.
Squeaky wheel and all that.
The demise of HOG Life Membership was due to the loss of reoccurring $$. HOG is completely self financed, no money from the Mothership is used to keep HOG National operating.
I didn't ask my source about the multiyear memberships. Hmmm, Ima e-mail him.

Same.....Lifetime membership I got in '92. HOG used to do some neat stuff. Can't recall anything useful today......to me anyway.
Have you fellas actually read the "BENEFITS" part of your HOG membership??? Seems like quite a few benefits for those of us who actually ride, as opposed to you guys saying HOG doesn't offer anything useful today.
- Riding Rewards
- Loyalty Points
- Unlimited Deluxe Roadside Assistance
- HD Insurance Discount
- 10% Eagle Rider Discount
- 10% off Hilton Hotels
- 50% KOA Rewards Discount
- $40 off Federal Motorcycle Transport
- VIP treatment and exclusive collectibles at major rallies
- Unlimited HD Museum Admission
- And several other benefits
More than pays for itself. But like I said, the ones I listed will benefit those of us who travel on our bikes. If you're just a local dinner-with-the-wife rider, you probably won't see the value.
I agree that if you ride HOG pays you. I have been life member for a long time, but even at $60 a year you can make a few bucks on the membership. If you enter the millage challenge you get a point for every mile you ride (up to 15K miles a year), so if you ride 15K miles in the year you get a $150 dollar gift card. 6K miles would get you your membership cost back.
Have to be honest about it, HOG does keep watering down the value of membership though. Used to be able to get $200 a year for mileage, the print magazine and the atlas are gone, the coins are pretty cheap. Like a lot of things, if you don't put any interest or effort into it, you don't get anything out of it, and as fewer and fewer people are involved it will probably slowly die out.
