No $hit. So is your auto insurance. If esp gives you piece of mind then that is worth something. Can you put a price on that?

I think blanket statements are not appropriate here. If you put 20K miles/year on your bike it might be wise. 2K/year, probably not.

It’s what you are willing to risk. The potential financial loss of a car due to accident or theft Is much higher than the potential financial loss of a mechanical failure of a motorcycle.
