Savannah H-D® Military Storage Program

While you are deployed away from home for military duty, Savannah H-D®; will store your Harley-Davidson® motorcycle for your entire deployment, free! That's our way to show our appreciation for the service you provide for us.

To qualify for this program, bring a copy of your military orders for overseas deployment or PCS/TDY orders, your military ID and proof of registration. The motorcycle must be registered in the name of the deployed military member to qualify.

We will add fuel stabilizer, maintain air in the tires, connect to a battery tender until your return and secure your bike in our climate controlled secure storage facility. All at no charge to you. Space is limited. When you return simply give us a call and we'll wash your motorcycle before you pick it up. If you can't make it to the shop, we will pick-up and deliver your motorcycle within a 50-mile radius. Just be sure to call us to set up delivery.

We strongly recommend that your bike receives an oil & filter change prior to storage. We'll do this for only $50 plus tax (price based on regular oil, Syn 3 is an additional $10). This is also a great time to have any scheduled maintenance or accessories installed. Our service department can take care of any service or installation while your bike is in storage.
