ESP questions
First do you have ESP?
Second, have you used it? if so, what was your experience? did the repair get you back on the road?
Third, did you use a HD shop or an independent shop for the repairs? or can you use an independent shop for repairs?
Reason for questions, looking at used 09 Ultra for Alaska trip and wondering should get ESP or not on bike.
thanks for your kind and helpful responses.

Yes I have it. 7 years with tire/wheel.
No I have not used it.
Why would you want to use an Indy on the road?
If you want a copy of the CNA contract that I got one year ago, pm me and I'll send it to you. It might pay you to actually read the contract. It's not a warranty, it's a contract. It tells you what is covered, what is not covered, and how you can neutralize your coverage by making certain modifications to the stock motorcycle.
Tire and wheel has no deductible by the way. Maybe a deal maker for your trip.

I myself would not buy an ESP, because my minor modifications may void any claim.
if you have HOG it comes with basic roadside asst. for US and Canada.
the $20 upgrade takes it to unlimited mileage to the nearest dealer.

Got it and have used it with good results. H-D dealers only. $50 co-pay no matter how big or little the job is. Peace of mind. Some folks swear against them, me I swear by it. Good investment in my opinion.

I have a two year ESP on this bike, only had this one since May 2013 and havent used it yet. On my last bike, a RKC I had one and it had a minor oil leak, while in the shop tech said gaskets and seals were 'seeping' and HD paid $800 for gaskets and seals.
I bought my 09 FLHTC with 345XX miles on it and the ESP gives me piece of mind for the next two years.

Under section 12, Contract Territory...."This contract provides coverage in the United States, including its territories and possessions, and Canada only for failures due solely to the MECHANICAL BREAKDOWN of COVERED PARTS."
And as for your comment about the contracts being issued by different companies, the CNA National Warranty Corporation is the company, there are no other companies involved...at least that's the way it is in mine. Not to say you might be able to buy some kind of ESP from another company, but the one from CNA is what the HD dealer sells.
Anyway, some like em and some don't. So what's new?
