Roadside Assistance for Motor Scooters

Not all roadside assistance programs specifically include assistance for two-wheeled vehicles. (The Auto Club charges extra for a policy that handles them. From the ACSC website: Get Roadside Assistance for Your RV and Motorcycle, Too. Feel more secure in your recreational vehicle or while riding your motorcycle** with our optional RV and motorcycle towing and RV tire change service. However, if you are a member of the Auto Club, adding motorcycle and RV roadside assistance coverage is very reasonable -- just $27/year in California. Clearly the way to go. It is very interesting that they group motorcycles and RVs together -- very convenient though if you go RVing with your motorscooter. See RVs and Motorscooters.

One service that does handle scooters, and, in fact, concentrates on smaller vehicles, is the GE Motor Club, whose prices are also very competitive.

From the GE Motor Club Manual: Whenever you, a secondary member of an associate member has a problem with any disabled car, motorcycle, or small truck or RV under one (1) ton capacity, help can be obtained through your Membership.

From the web application page: When you enroll online, you will be billed only $9.99 a month/$104 a year (save over $15 a year) for Premier membership. $7.99 a month or $79 a year (save over $16 a year) for Standard membership... You may cancel at any time. If you cancel and you are being billed monthly, you will no longer be billed; if you are being billed annually, you will receive a prorated refund of any membership fees you paid for the period remaining in your membership.

Another roadside assistance service this does seem to be available in all states is Partspro Direct. At $85 for two years, it is fairly reasonable but their website is abysmally uninformative.

There may well be other programs that offer comparable services. We will continue to research this.
