I'm buying a used 2016 ultra with 3 months left on the factory warranty. If I buy a 3 year extended, I'm told I, in effect, only bought a 1 year warranty ? That makes no sense to me. Why would I pay $2000 (3 year) for $1200 (1 Year) coverage ? I'm told 1 year extended coverage starts from the time of purchase. That would mean the extended coverage is a waste as there is the factory warranty !? Why doesn't the extended coverage start when the factory warranty runs out ?

 

None of that makes any sense at all. I bought the extended coverage, for about the same money you're talking, and got 5 years of coverage total.

 

Welcome. You have the right to shop around. I highly encourage it. I paid a little over $2000 for 5 years extended coverage.

 

You say "I`m told" several times...
Who is telling you this?

 

It's insurance. Why insurer a hobby?

 

Welcome to the forum.

 

Paid less than $2k for HD extended overage at purchase of my 17 Limited. Covers the bike for a total of 7 years. You may be paying more for coverage of a "used" bike and I know the coverage costs a little more if you don't buy it on day one. Your quote sounds high.

 

the Extended service plan is what that is called and it starts when the factory warranty runs out

 

I bought the 5 year extended service plan for the same money your talking about.....pretty much paid for itself when my ABS system went for a crap.. I think its well worth it.

 

One of the forum sponsors is a ESP dealer and they are 1/3 less than the dealers bullshit for the same coverage. Many members use them and I'm buying later this spring.
