Friend of ours has the towing from AMA. He got stuck a few weeks ago, called them, waited for a couple hours, nobody showed up. We went to meet him and HDX and Roaddog moved his bike to a side street. He went and borrowed somebody's trailer to get it home.

This is from their membership sign up page:

AMA ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE

Covers all of your motorcycles, cars and trucks
Towing up to 35 miles. Up to five dispatched service calls per year
Covers RV's
Covers trailers
Trip Routing

I am not sure there are too many places you could break down on the Spyder that are within 35 miles of a dealership. :dontknow:

The AMA Roadside Service is not available to all members, only those that sign up for automatic renewal. Sorry, nobody gets to keep my credit card number and permission to use it...indefinitely! I'll take my chances with Best or Progressive, or my BMWMOA Anonymous book, or AAA with the cars.

I only had ti use BEST once. I had GREAT SERVICE. Both on the roadside assistance AND the fully paid warranty work that was done. A few days in the shop and the bike was ready for me to pick up.
I LOVE BEST warranty Service :2thumbs:

I used the tow once with no problems. They were very quick to dispatch a truck for the 46 miles to the store of my choice, not the nearest. Haven't had to use the Warranty yet as my standard warranty just ran out last week. I have used the "annual" portion of the the BEST Plus and up until this year I was happy as I hadn't paid a penny for service. I

While it was in for the DPS repair I asked them to also do the "annual maintenance" as outlined in the BEST Plus contract (oil change, air filter, various checks and adjustments. I was told I already used up my included annual maintenance. I questioned how could I when I still had 2 years on the BEST Plus maintence? The dealer aid BRP says I was allowed the initial 600 mile check (which I received) and two annuals, whcih I also received. I could not see anywhere in the contract where it stipulates 2 annuals but it does say for the term of the Warranty.

I haven't dealt with BRP yet. Has anyone else taken davantage of the BEST Plus maintenance and what is your experience?

For just an additional $2 per month, I get roadside service with my insurance company for my car. I think the bike would be similar.

Have not heard any complaints about BEST warranty of recent vintage.
