We would like to extend a personal invitation to
join our National Organization of BMW motorcycle owners and enthusiasts. The
aim of BMW MOA is communication, based upon the mutual sharing of individual
ideas, talents, concepts and experiences; so the knowledge and enjoyment of
our sport will substantially increase through collective education and
participation. BMW Motorcycle Owners of America, Incorporated, a non-profit
organization of BMW owners and local area chartered BMW clubs, is governed by a nine-member Board of Directors, elected biennially by BMW MOA members in a general
election. These directors, representative of the general membership, govern
according to BMW MOA corporate by-laws; a copy of which is available to a
BMW MOA member upon request. BMW MOA is proud to have members in all 50
United States, Canada and South America, continental Europe and Armed Forces
stationed worldwide.
