Default Sgs vs rgs

A dealer 500miles away has given me a great deal on my trade and an even better price on a new bike. My local dealers couldn't touch it or even come close.
I'm trading my 2015 SGS for a 2015 RGS
D&D exhaust and a stage 5 tire shredder kit.
Now here is my concern. They want me to take an ESP for 5 years. The tire shredder kit has warrenty for 2 years. So why get the 5 when it won't apply to the engine?
Any thoughts of the horsepower and torque I might be getting with this set up?
The dealer is going to be using the compliant tuner and not the screaming eagle race tuner.
Anyhow I talked to Factory 47 and they won't have any production on the Malo 14" until mid to end of March. I'll get them ordered sooner than later I suppose because I don't want to wait any longer than needed. I won't be riding until the end of March because I'm from Canada.

Is ESP the same as extended warranty?

I was told the radio is $1500. The other electronics and abs etc. would also be covered. I have never had an issue with any warrantyable (is that a word) item before it expired anyway (knock on wood). I say save the money in your own account and cross your fingers.

You're trading a 2015 SGS for a 2015 RGS. I wouldn't waste my money on an extended warranty if that's how long you keep a bike,

If you add three year ESP in 2018, just before factory warranty expires, is it same price as buying the 5 year now?

Tire coverage and rental bike is about only thing you'll use from ESP for first two years.

If it is the same price(or cheaper), you do a lot of miles, and keeping the bike 5 year, then could make sense if you're an extended warranty kind of guy.
