AAA towing
I've used RV and motorcycle towing for some time. I had "Good Sam" for a while. When I needed them, there was always some "excuse". Now with AAA, I get fast service every time. That isn't often fortunately. The motorcycle addition is one of the best values in motorcycling.
"Motorcycle roadside service is currently available for all AAA Members residing in Florida, Georgia, Tennessee and Puerto Rico.*"

So, if you don't live in one of these states/territories, you cannot add this rider to your AAA coverage....or did I miss something....

The below information is from the California AAA website, that says coverage is nationwide and into Canada.

I've never had to use AAA for motorcycle towing (knock on wood). I did use HOG once, and the guy who came out had a flat bed, but admitted he had never towed a motorcycle before, I had to help anchor the bike down or it would've been bad.
For those who have the Classic AAA membership and want to upgrade or have upgraded to RV/Motorcycle, make note that the 100 miles is ONLY for the RV or motorcycle. The 100 miles towing does not extend to your other cars; you need to also upgrade your Classic to a Plus membership to get the 100 miles for your other vehicles.
Ask me how I know. I've taken care of that since lol.

Thanks for reminding me. I've been meaning to add bike towing to my AAA account now for a few months. MY brother has it...
Was on a ride with my brother and his son this summer back from Americade. My nephew picked up a screw in his tire, flattening it, just about 100 miles from home. Tow truck was there within 40 mins. The driver was meticulous in getting the bike on the flatbed and strapping it down.

As well towing distances and number of tows.
The one occasion I had to need a tow truck, I specified what the bike was, so they sent a tilting flatbed. The guy had not much to work with, so I had to help every step of the way, and tell him where to NOT tie the bike down from. Anyway, had less than ten miles to home. Got a bill in the mail for over three hundred dollars.. I sent them a bill for my services in loading and unloading my bike. I charged them two fifty, as I'm not gonna work cheap for them. Never heard anything back, and that's been about seven years ago. I know I'll never call them again for anything. They had said, sure, we haul bikes all the time. Yeah, sure they do. So, be careful who you call, if you love your bike as much as I do mine.
This is what I have, note the unlimited benefit.
Only issue to me is, no hotel discounts and such like AAA has everywhere.

I got it for touring. Feared needing a tow in the middle of nowhere and getting socked for hundreds of dollars.

I've used AAA towing for my '04 Vette and my '03 Heritage. Both times they were prompt, the dispatcher kept me informed of the tow ETA (longest wait was 40 min).
Both drivers treated my vehicles like gold (OK, I was hovering a little) and certainly knew what they were doing.....

With Premier you get 200 miles for any vehicle once per year. Then goes to max of 100 miles for 3 more times per year.
