I own a Kodiak 450 "03 with no problems so far. The Factory warrentee runs out in about 2 months so i'm considering buying the extended warrentee. What is your experince with this? Is it worth the cost for the no repair bills for a few more years?

Thanks Todd

 

I have a 2001 raptor for which I bought the extended warranty. I have had great luck with my dealer and it has paid for itself 3 time over already.

 

First time I used my extended warranty it paid for itself. They are a fairly affordable piece of mind [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

I hate insurance, it's like betting against yourself! But sometimes you gotta do it. To me it really comes down to whether or not you can afford a real big repair bill. It's unlikely you would have a big expensive failure, but if so would you be able to afford to fix it or would the quad have to sit while you saved up? If you can't pay it comfortably then an extended warranty makes sense. As for repair bills, well you are gonna have those anyway. Most of the stuff your quad will need on its first birthday won't be covered under warranty. IE: brakes, bearings, cables etc. All the work i've had to do on my yammies (alot) wouldn't have been covered. That's the price to play unless you get a new quad every year.
So, will you bet an unlikely, but possible $500-1200 (we'll say) against the definite $3-500 warranty. I'll take the bet.
