Road Riding & Touring
Most motorcyclists in America—and around the world—are road riders. They operate street motorcycles on the highways and byways for work and pleasure or simply to get from point A to point B.
The AMA supports riders in many ways.
Advocacy: The AMA is your strongest advocate in Washington, D.C. Our freedoms are threatened by motorcycle-only checkpoints, fuel standards that threaten our warranties and sound restrictions that unfairly target motorcyclists. Behind the scenes, the AMA is also an important resource for state motorcyclists’ rights organizations andworkshand in hand with them and local groups to defend against unfair state and local laws. Visit our Advocacy Center to see what’s happening in your state and around the country.
AMA Roadside Assistance: AMA Roadside Assistance covers your motorcycles, but it also covers your cars, trucksandRVs—not just for the member, but everyone living in that member’s household. This valuable service is available at no additional cost to members who purchase three-year memberships or elect to auto-renew their memberships annually. It’s paid for by the savings the AMA receives from not having to send expensive renewal mailings each year. Click here to learn more.
AMA LongRider Program: The AMA LongRider program is your chance to show other riders that your motorcycle is not a toy. It is your preferred way of getting around. AMA members are invited to “start the clock” on their AMA LongRider recognition right away by registering as an AMA LongRider today.
