However, if you have warranty issues & take it back to dealer where you bought bike you do not have to pay the $50 deductible. If you have to take it to another dealer then you will have the deductible to pay. They aren't concerned about tuners etc like HD can be.

Mine is the same. I was just trying to let that one individual know you can get a warranty that runs that long, didn't mean to confuse anyone.

For used motorcycles, all coverages begin the same day the bike and service contract are purchased."

if you buy a new bike and the 7 year plan, it is 7 years from date of purchase. the first 2 years runs concurrently with the factory warranty.

Exactly!!!!!

I don't know where you heard that Zurich dumped Harley because I just got an ESP from them 4 weeks ago.

It's 90 days at that price quote. After 90 days you have to pay the full price for a used bike ESP, not the new bike discount rate.

You have 2 years from the purchase date to buy an ESP, remember that it's the purchase date, not the delivery date.

If they start getting to many claims they will file bankruptcy and come back with a new name. Best bet is get a manual,some friends,you tube and work on your own bike.

Well there are adjusters for the warranty company , and they approve or disallow things on a case by case basis, so I would doubt that a dealer will say something is wrong when it isn't, because they will get caught eventually.
