Default Extended Warranty

I was asking my dealer about purchasing an extended warranty from Harley on my 2010....He told me that if I was under 75Kmiles I could purchase a 5 year unlimited mileage warranty that had a $50 deductible. Creating a total of 7 years of coverage.....The cost was $2,200 .....does that sound correct?

Yup, sounds about right.
My 09 Street Glide is out of warranty, I have the extended warranty and I am waiting for a replacement stereo under the extended warranty. The dealer quoted $1000 without the extended warranty and as it should turn out to be only the $50 with the extended warranty, I am waiting to see the final bill.
The extended warranty is with CNA out of Arizona, they must pre approve all extended warranty work before they will pay for it, not really sure how it will work in the long run, my extended warranty is good until 2017.

you may be able to shop around on that warranty and get a better price from another dealer.

caveats:
1.) the warranty is not provided by H-D but by another company- if they go belly up- there goes your payment

2.) just try to get a copy of the contract or info online...you can only see it at the dealership--- where it is difficult to fully read it through and consider what they are selling, what you are buying and the conditions

2.b) many, many common alterations ( like stage 1 or screaming eagle "off road" parts) may void the warranty coverage.
Yes, the guy taking a commission for selling it to you may say otherwise, but read the contract.
The contract may also require that services be done at their facility, at their price, using their parts supplies ( magnuson moss act applies to original manufacturer's warranty, not aftermarket or supplimental coverages)

after finally getting a copy of what they are selling and reading the fine print, I kept my money in my pocket and let the 2 year play out.

warranty can be "peace of mind"--- but I couldn't see a guarantee of that in the contract

2200 is a little high, like anything they have wiggle room to deal. I just got 5 yr on my new 2011 (total 7yr) HD warranty for 1000.00 granted it was with the purchase of the new bike so there was more leverage in the deal.

I remember that there was post recently about a dealer that was making great deals on the warranty and could write any one as long as the bike met the requirements, you may want to try a search.

Id stay with the HD Extended warranty for security as well.

I do most of my own work but still buy the extended warranty if I get a good price on it. parts alone can more than pay for the warranty.

That's way too high. I got mine with a zero deductible for $1000. A dealer in Ohio. Let me get home this PM and I'll see who the dealer was. Shoot me a PM and I'll give u the info.

Are you sure you got a total of 7 years? I have a 5-year extended warranty too and when you buy it when the bike is new, it runs parallel to the mfg warranty so it's not 2 + 5, it's 5.
You can then renew it before it expires but I can tell you that the price of the 5-year extension is not the same as the first 5 years when the bike is new.

A friend and I were on a trip this spring, about 1000 miles from home. His muffler kept sliding almost off, the clamp needed to be replaced. We went to a dealer and they would not honor the warranty, they said it was only good at the dealer he bought it from. That might be fine if you never go anywhere, but if you travel it is going to be a problem. I don't know if all the extended warranties are like that, but I would ask.

Also, he brought his bike into the dealer he bought the warranty from two other times, so far that warranty has paid for nothing, not one penny. If it is not a bumper to bumper type warranty you may be wasting your money.
