This may have been talked to death in the past, but what's the latest thinking?

If you had it to do over again, would you buy the extended warranty? Thanks.

 

i only have mine because it was free. i would read the fine print and ask alot of questions to what it covers and what it doesnt cover. be informed as to what it does not cover so there will be no surprises and then ask your self if its worth it. just my .02

 

my 2cents worth is that I spent the extra cash to extend both my 450's to 4 yrs.
(600 and some change, I put on the second when I bought then before the first
ran out of Mfg. warrenty, I called and dropped the same coverage on it). So far I
hadn't had to ring that dinner bell yet so to speak cuz I don't run them as often
as others and nearly as rough (All shame to say).

Would I do it all over again? Well if I had the money!

I KNOW THAT A ATV COST ALOT TO REPAIR BUT IF YOU HAVE A VISA OR SOME THING IT IS KINDA OF LIKE A EX WARRANTY YOU ARE JUST PAYING UP FRONT MY BUDDY WRECKED HIS RADIATOR ON HIS 4X4 " IT WAS NOT " CHEP TO REPLACE I KNOW THAT THEY ARE SMALLER BUT THEY DONT MAKE THEM LIKE CAR RADIATORS . I HAVE NOT BOUGHT THEM ON ALL THREE MACHINES I OWN .

 

Alot of the decision is how long you keep your machines for. I have owned around 10 atv's in my life and have really only needed the warranty on the 2007 Sporty deluxe that I recently retired because of the problems it had. I usually only keep my machines two to three years cuz I don't like to dump money into alot of repairs. I try to get in as much miles in the initial warranty period which I believe is when most of your problems really occur. As the technology improves, so should the reliability. I have yet to purchase an extended warranty.
