Default Roadside assistance who you got

Fellas, Im riding from Michigan to Florida next weak on my 14 SGS. I have called my insurance (State Farm) and they offer no roadside protection. I will be solo. My question who do you guys use for roadside?I have read mixed reviews on H.O.G. roadside and I'm not currently a member.. Any suggestions would be great.Looking for towing in case im in BFE

I have AAA+ and HOG. Even with my old bikes, I've never used either.
Best service was when I broke my leg...MY FRIENDS.
The bike was picked up and returned to my garage with no damage before I even got home from the hospital.
I would, and have, done it for them as well.

Mine is through the Markel insurance I have, the roadside emergency road service is thru Nation Safe Drivers.

Good to know about State Farm not offering roadside service. I was about to switch over to them and all I got from the agent was, "well it's on your auto policies so I guess it would be on the motorcycle". Guess not...

AAA Plus RV
I've been happy with the service received the few times I called for service. I've even received a discount on a few hotel rooms with my AAA card.

I have Farmers on all cars/pickups and Foremost on all the toys. Foremost has picked up the bike a couple of times. Never a problem.

Strange. Maybe this varies from state to state or even from office to office but I have Emergency Road Service on my RK. As a matter of fact, I just used it a couple of weeks ago. Snapped a throttle cable. Called the number on the back of my card. Local tow truck showed up in about 30 minutes. Turned in the receipt to the SF office and got a check from them a few days later.

I had AAA Plus for years and when I switched over to SF and discovered the Emergency Road Service, I dropped AAA.
