Do these esp or warranties have deductibles? Like I said my dealer doesn't sell them so I don't know much about them. How and why do you get money back?

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!!! It's a rip off the car dealers started years ago to make more money on there cars. This is one thing the statistics are in your favor that you will never need it and that's why the dealers push it, they know that that they will make money on it (that would be your money).

On a 24K motorcycle (in my case) it added about 21.00 per month to my payments for 5 years of peace of mind including the tire & wheel coverage.

It is the same as insurance on any vehicle. They make money until you need it....then it IS there for you to use.

by buying the ESP, you are betting that the bike will break down. I think in the long run it's a poor decision.

I didnt buy it with my '09 RK, nor was it offered.
