When I first got the bike I broke down in town. Turned out to be a loose battery connection cause the dealer didn't prep the bike properly. I called the dealer since I a just gotten the bike a day or 2 before. They came out and got me and fixed the bike the next day. If that happened today I would have figured that problem out on the side of the road and been on my way.
I have Liberty Mutual motorcycle insurance which comes with roadside assistance. I don't know if it's any good cause I've never had to use it but many insurance companies offer this little add on. It may be worth investigating.
As far as advice, I'd carry some basic tools with you at a min. We've made lists several times on the site. If you do a search you'll probably find plenty of threads discussing the recommended tool kit.
