    never used them, have used the AA in the past - worth the cost if you have an older bike thats prone to occasionally giving up on you. I had it with a 30year old motoguzzi, saved me a fortune in pick up and drop off fees. If your bike is a runner then, its not really going to be much good for you.

    Better off to get AA plus. It may cost a little more but you can use it for your cage or bike - Nationwide...

    I wonder if it is the same as the Honda Riders Club thing. Which was really just contracted out to some other firm.

    It was a good setup, saved me one day.

    I do coz Wifey told me. She's a AA person type manager thingy... Just give them a call on the 0800 number or go into Porirua AA and ask (and help her get her/our bonus!!)

    AA is anti-motorcycle. They offend me on religious grounds. Use any other provider as a protest.

    http://www.honda-motorcycles.co.nz/ - the rider's club link seems to be ....not there.... at the moment, but it costs me like $45 a year and for that you get a magazine and crap, but the main thing is the roadside rescue. Haven't had to sue it yet and hopefully won't ever, but $45 per annum is piss all for the peace of mind....

    Er yes...I'm with AA as a cager and just recently I had to avail myself of their services when I *ahem* ran out of go-juice on the way up from Hamiltron Dialed them up *222 (free from mobile) and got one of their spiffing chaps to drop me off $10 worth of it! So, no worries on that score (and it applies to my cage as well!)
