Harley Owners Group® membership (except the "Life Member" patch and pin) for
the term of your enrollment: one, two, or three years at a time.
Associate
- To become an associate member, you must be sponsored by a full
or full life member. Associate membership entitles you to many, but not all,
of the benefits of Harley Owners Group membership for the term of your
enrollment: one, two, or three years at a time.
Full Life -
Entitles you to all the benefits of Harley Owners Group membership
(including the "Life Member" patch and pin) for as long as you own a

New Vehicle Purchase (NVP) Program
- A one-year full membership is
automatically issued to the purchaser of a new unregistered Harley-Davidson
motorcycle. An automatic membership is generated to the individual whose
name first appears on the title. (That is, if more than one name appears on
the title, only one membership is generated.) Memberships are not generated
for motorcycles titled in a company name. If you are a current H.O.G.® member
at the time of a new unregistered Harley-Davidson® motorcycle purchase or
have been within the past two years, please provide your membership number
at the time of sale to receive an automatic one-year extension. This will
prevent a duplicate membership from being generated.
NOTE: All 45th
Parallel rides are closed events unless stated otherwise. This means
that you can participate in chapter rides if you are a current member and
that you can have one guest per ride.

To
receive your renewal package sooner, renew your membership before it expires
(the price will be prorated based on your renewal date). Two- and three-year
renewals are available, as is an automatic renewal option for credit card
users.
