I broke down yesterday, 15/11/2020 on the M1, just past junction 34 heading north. This is four lanes now so no hard shoulder. I knew it was a serious electric fault because all the dials suddenly stopped working, Alternator, a known fault on triumph motorcycles of this age,2005. So inside lane, no hazards,battery completely fried, I'm scared. call the RAC, explain the situation,I tell the operative no point sending a mechanic, I need a flat bed truck to get me home. Highways arrived, cordoned off the lane and we waited. About 30 minutes later Simon arrived, a mechanic in his little van. He can't start it so he rings for a flat bed. grrr. Another 30 minutes a third party company, Richford recovery ring, and say they've been given the job. But they won't get there for another 60 to 90 minutes. At this point the Highways agency chap says he can't keep the lane closed off for that length of time. He sent for a flat bed from them, saying to me whichever comes first will get me off. The Highways flat bed arrives first and takes me and the bike to the nearest services. £150 thank you very much. Richford arrived about 30 minutes later and took me home. Rang RAC today and asked for reimbursement. Not their policy. If you're looking for breakdown cover, look elsewhere.
