Truck
We have AAA Premier RV Plus Motorcycle which covers everything we have. It runs about $246/yr.
We've only used it once for the motorcycle, so we're not exactly experts on how well it works for the RV. But, we've had AAA for many years (pre RV) and the few times we've needed it AAA was on the ball.

I should also note that it doesn't matter if we are hitched to the truck or not. The only time it might matter is if we need to raise the nose of the RV to lower the rear of the RV, making the ramp approach more shallow.

No. We've never had an issue at all. But, then again, we ride an Indian, not a Harley… 😳 Just kidding! But we really never have had any smells at all. In the event that ever changes, our garage does have vents in the front and rear of the garage that can be configured to force airflow through the garage when traveling.

We use a WheelDock (wheeldock.com…) and four straps.
The WheelDock has a piston you trigger with your foot to lock in the wheel versus having to rock it in and out. We don't bolt it in at all, it just sits on the floor and I strap Lucile down on the front forks and rear bars.
We demonstrate it a bit here youtu.be/_X-LAY8Fwlw?t=1341…,
then later here youtu.be/uPXNmS0IBRQ?t=1268…
and even more here: youtu.be/f56_8ecCTaI?t=777…
We got them from Crazy Al's Biker Helmets (changinglanesrv.com…). We're on our second set of SOA Inspired DOT Beanie Helmets and LOVE them! First set just got beat up after a few years. VERY comfortable and DOT Approved. Yes, we know they don't offer the same protection as a full face helmet but it's definitely better than NO helmet! ?

We got them at “militarypoloshirts.com”, but it appears that the site is unfortunately no longer operational.
Maybe this search will help.
We got those from PPI (www.thepropad.com…). Very high quality and the owner, Mike, is a great guy. We met him at the Sturgis Rally.

While we have heard of some RV parks not allowing motorcycles in the park, we have not encountered any. We did see one when researching an area for places to stay before, but that one didn't make the cut for obvious reasons…
Some do have a policy to only ride in and out of the park from your site and not “cruise” the park. We completely understand that. Most RV parks and campgrounds are completely fine with motorcycles, even if you have two. We see it all the time.
