New HRCA Benefits



The Honda Rider's Club of America (HRCA®) and MASA, Medical Air Services Association, have announced a new partnership that provides HRCA Members with an exclusive offer that will not only save them money, but more importantly, may save their lives.

"As the world's leading motorcycle manufacturer's owners club, we are very pleased to introduce HRCA Members to MASA and the prepaid medical air transport services they offer," said Bill Savino, HRCA Manager. "MASA has agreed to waive the initiation fee for HRCA Members and we encourage our riders to take advantage of MASA's valuable benefits."

"We are glad to offer HRCA Members an exclusive discount for a MASA membership," said Keith Knapp, MASA motorcycle division director and a motorcyclist of 40 years himself. "We are confident that our low-cost protection is a perfect fit for their active lifestyle."

MASA membership can save tens of thousands of dollars if a rider goes down or becomes ill and requires emergency air medical transportation. In addition, MASA will arrange for transportation to the nearest medical facility equipped to handle their condition. MASA benefits* include:

1. Emergency air transportation
2. Commercial air transportation
3. Ground ambulance
4. Repatriation/recuperation
5. Return transportation
6. Non-injury transport
7. Escort transportation
8. Minor children/grandchildren return
9. Vehicle return including motorcycle
10. Mortal remains transport
11. Organ retrieval
12. Organ recipient transport

"You don't have to be traveling by motorcycle to receive the benefits of MASA membership," said Knapp. "If one of our members is hospitalized at home and needs specialized medical treatment that is not locally available, MASA will transport them by air ambulance to the hospital that can best attend to their needs."

Under the agreement, MASA will waive the one-time initiation fee, a $60 value for HRCA Members. The annual fee for an Individual Membership is $240 and $360 for a Family Membership. MASA members receive all 12 MASA benefits in the company's coverage area: the U.S., Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, the Bahamas, Bermuda, Turks and Caicos. Optional worldwide trip coverage is available at a discounted price for MASA members. Emergency toll-free telephone numbers are imprinted on the back of a wallet-sized membership card for easy reference.

"The HRCA is dedicated to offering our Members the best benefits available, and we are pleased to offer the considerable benefit of MASA emergency assistance services," said Savino.

To take advantage of this special offer, HRCA Members must have a current, valid HRCA membership number. A call to MASA at (866) 781-8162, or visit to www.medairservices.com/hrca is all it takes to get the process going.
