Breakdown Cover that comes with Insurance policies

I've got my motorcycle insurance through IAM Surety and I also took out their breakdown cover. I'm out with my brother as a pillion on his bike which now won't start after we stopped for lunch. Unfortunately I've just discovered he doesn't have breakdown cover and despite messing with things I don't think he's any nearer getting it started.

Does anyone know if the breakdown cover that I took out would cover me on my brothers bike. I doubt it will as I'm pretty sure that these policies are linked to the bike not the person, and sadly not anticipating a breakdown I don't have the policy on me, but it would be good if someone could confirm this either way as I don't want to waste the credit on my mobile phoning them unnecessarily.

Thanks.

    Why don't you ring them and find out?
    Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.

    I have cover with Autoaid and it's me that's covered not the vehicle, don't know if other policies are the same.
