Dealer Forever Warranty
#21
and when Forever Warranty goes belly up, as most of these aftermarket service plans do, then you have dumped a ton of money into the stealerships service department for nothing.
Ask them for, IN WRITING, a statement that the dealership will provide/ continue the same warranty if Forever goes out of business.
Personally I would decline the offer and do my own work,

Of course they're profit centers, that's why dealers offer them. Somewhere around half of the cost goes to the seller's commission. The warranty company gets what's left. Presumably it's more than enough for them to keep the lights on at the warranty place.

The cost of the services, if I just have them do the oil change, is going to be about $150 dollars. I put about 10,000 miles a year on my bike, so two services a year. The bike is a 2015, so factory warranty is already gone. One added factor, the previous owner installed a Vance and Hines tuner which the dealer deactivated because they say it will void the warranty. So now I have a tuner I cannot use if I want to keep the warranty.

I left California in 2011. The state was then considering lawsuits against all those quick lube places for changing oils too frequently. Not sure how that worked out. But most folks change oils too frequently and are wasting oil.
