Obtaining Roadside Assistance With Your Motorcycle

While it’s important to stay on top of regular motorcycle maintenance tasks, there are some breakdowns you simply cannot prevent. Occasionally, you may find yourself on the side of the highway or in a parking lot with a motorcycle that’s got something wrong with it, and you’ll need outside help to get it running again. Here’s what to know about getting roadside assistance for your motorcycle.

Make Sure Your Insurance Offers It

First off, you should have comprehensive insurance coverage on your motorcycle that includes a roadside assistance option to save yourself a headache when you do need repairs. Most motorcycle roadside assistance programs will give you help 365 days of the year, at any time of the day or night, but it’s always good to check the parameters of your particular policy.

If your insurance doesn’t offer roadside assistance, you may be able to obtain this service for a separate fee via your car or house insurance policy or as a stand-alone service. Keep the number in your phone so that you always have it when you need it, or download the app if there is one.

What Will They Help With?

A roadside assistance program may help with any number of issues, such as:

• Keys locked in a storage compartment
• Flat tires
• Engine trouble
• No gas
• Dead battery

You may need to pay separate fees for some of these services, especially for gasoline.
