I have my roadside assistance added in my insurance (progressive). also have AAA but I don't pay the extra part for the motorcycle towing. You can also get roadside assistance by joining "ROK" . As a VBA member you can get a discount making membership under $20.00 for the year. The roadside assistance is a part of the package. Or you can purchase " Ride On " products and they come with a roadside assist package option at a very reasonable price.

I have AAA premier, 200 miles of towing for whatever I am in (motorcycle or RV or car.. whatever) at 150ish per year it is very expensive, but I usually drive junk and get my moneys worth each year. This also has trip interruption and locksmithing services, etc.

AMA roadside assistance. Besides supporting the group that lobbies on behalf of motorcyclists, the annual membership includes roadside assistance. I've used it several times for cars and one use pays for itself.

I used it this year. Took them almost 4 hours to get to me...Luckily it wasn't in the summer or I would have had a problem.

Buy a Victory. You'll never need "Motorcycle Roadside Assistance" again.

I have used AMA roadside assistance probably 5 or 6 times in the past 7 years. Mostly for my son's car. I've used it once for my motorcycle when the battery went dead.
