Default What warranty do they give you?
What warranty do the Harley dealers give you when you buy a pre-owned bike?

Let's say that the factory warranty has run out.

Do you get 30 days....90...a year?

Depends on the dealership. No matter what product you buy used, most places give you 30 days, including auto repairs.

Like dickey says, it varies. Whatever they give you, negotiate for more.

Depending on the year of the bike, you may also find the dealer happy to sell you an extended warranty.

Yup, $$$ for them But...it isn't a bad idea, especially if you don't know how the bike was maintained/beat...

A month and 1k miles?? might be ok. You'll have to go through it, or I would. Meaning check the thing out like an OCD x2.
