r1limited Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Simple question, been a member for a long time now, I see the plus and minus of the org, but they have your back in goverment affairs. From E15 to Riders Rights they pretty much are our only advocate. FZ07.org could apply for a Club license and get swag BARF is the first forum to do this “Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.” --Thomas Jefferson quoting Cesare Beccaria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedReaper Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 I just got something in the mail asking me to join recently. Is this something worth doing at all? What are the major advantages? Could care less if someone advocates for me in the government as legislation in my state is controlled by the local church more so than the people haha.

Being a member is just not for you thats just a plus, but it is for future generations as well. Of course this is just my opinion, but it extends to if your going be a motorcyclist and you bitch about closures, unfair road blocks, laws thet prohbit your hobby, then well your the problem “Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.” --Thomas Jefferson quoting Cesare Beccaria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member fzar Posted October 27, 2018 Premium Member Share Posted October 27, 2018 Member here. I like the grassroots angle, and supporting an advocate for riders rights. It’s never going to be the latest bike reviews, but more average joe and their ride/experiences. I like it and cannot imagine being a rider without being a member of AMA.

3crows Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 When I was a teen I joined the AMA but only that once. I probably should again, we all should so they have the funds to go to the politicians and lobby for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FZ07R WaNaB Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 I first joined in the 70's, and it's been on-and-off depending on whether I needed an AMA card for racing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member TylerNT02 Posted November 7, 2018 Premium Member Share Posted November 7, 2018 I've been with them for a few years now and enjoy the perks that they have, roadside assistance, discounts on numerous things like gear and hotels. Also the fact that they do lobby for motorcyclists. Oh yea, and to race motocross most tracks require an Ama card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
