That ESP coverage is expensive.
Haven't had any issues with my 18 Heritage 114. But with all the concerns over sumping I asked for a price. 3 years without the wheel and tire package is a little over 2K. Think if I am still having concerns about sumping I will just buy the S&S oil pump and plate and save $1400. By then should know for certain if that takes care of the problem. I realize the ESP would cover other issues but if something else were defective, my guess is it would have already shown up.

It is usually expensive. I ended up paying 1348 for 5 additional years with DiscountESP.com for my RGU.
I have other electronics, radio, ABS, things etc, so it made sense (for me) in my case.

I popped a head gasket on my RK at 5000mi. would have cost me more than that, I look at it as another insurance cost. I'll be buying my ESP fro Discount before the years out also.

On that bike I would probably pass... Note: I'm probably going to get one myself this year as a second bike

I was surprised at the cost of the esp compared to other brands. Last I checked Yamaha's plan was 500 for 5 years. Unless i run into problems in the next two years i will probably skip it. By then I will want to change the exhaust and tune it anyways. I looked into that discountesp site, they only offer 3rd party plans, it's not the same as the Harley plan.
