Default AAA vs. Road America

Hi there.
Was just wondering if anyone has any experiences with Road America versus AAA. We have had AAA for a few years and was told about Road America Ultra which will also pick up the vehicles.&nbsp\\; We have many experiences with HD Road Side Assistance and AAA.&nbsp\\; Trouble with HD road side was finding a tow truck.&nbsp\\; AAA you have to have RV plus to cover the motorcycle (which we did not find out until we used it once very expensive lesson). Reason we had a 2003 Ultra with 118,000 miles.&nbsp\\; So we've been there done that.&nbsp\\; But the AAA is getting expensive and I was told about the Road America.&nbsp\\; Any good bad experiences vs. AAA.&nbsp\\; it is alot cheaper but what about availability of trucks etc.
&nbsp\\;
THANKS IN ADVANCE
RIDE SAFE
Sarah

I'm in the market too, I switched from AAA to AARP which is about 1/2 the price of AAA with same benefits.&nbsp\\; I've got to find out about MC coverage...

Well for what it's worth and for those who can qualify (50+) the AARP Premier Plan covers any vehicle including motorcycle, car, the member is driving or riding.&nbsp\\; I don't know what kind of availabililty they have to haul bikes, but I've been real happy with their service on my autos and it beats AAA cost by a long shot.&nbsp\\; I just called AARP and got the info.&nbsp\\; Here is the # for those who are interested&nbsp\\; 1-800-732-8600&nbsp\\;

Post worked this time??
&nbsp\\;
Ultra Package (optional – only $29.95* per year)
For even more peace of mind, the Ultra Package option provides the same benefits as the Deluxe Package, plus emergency travel expense reimbursement up to the $1,000 maximum. You may qualify for the travel expense reimbursement if any of the following occurs: your covered motorcycle is disabled as a result of a mechanical breakdown of a warrantycovered component (still under the original Limited Warranty or Extended Service Plan) and is 100 miles or more away from your residence\\; or your covered motorcycle is disabled as a result of a collision, is 100 miles or more away from your residence and repair is delayed overnight due to the unavailability of required parts. Ask for full details when you sign up with Road America. Certain restrictions and/or exclusions apply.**
