My cam chain tensioners were replaced under the HD Extended Service Plan a couple of months ago; a new oil pump was installed at the same time also under the ESP due to cam chain tensioner wear/failure.

Read the ESP and familiarize yourself with the covered, uncovered, and excluded coverages. This isn't a lot of reading and you will be confident when you talk to the Service Manager; coverage of problems caused by the cam chain tensioner failure, under the terms of the ESP is a no brainer.

Yep, as long as you haven't done any engine mods and have had your bike serviced at the listed intervals.Even if you have mods some dealers will cover it anyway.

Trying to get preemptive work done is often difficult. Like having an old dead tree hanging over your house and wanting the insurance to pay to take it down; never heard of any result except "wait 'til it falls on the house."
