Premium Member xcarbonsteelx Posted October 9, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted October 9, 2015 Question for all of you. Sunday I will be picking up my FZ. The dealership has already added the extended warranty and a 3 year service/maintenance contract to the sale of it. Are either of these truly necessary? - xCarbonSteelx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member fzonly1 Posted October 9, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted October 9, 2015 Do you plan on modding it? (Silly question) I'm not sure which mods void warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member xcarbonsteelx Posted October 9, 2015 Author Premium Member Share Posted October 9, 2015 Nothing major... The dealership already put an exhaust on it, so no need there. I'm going to do a fender elimination kit and maybe some cosmetic like different turn signals, handle bars, mirrors. - xCarbonSteelx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member fzonly1 Posted October 9, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted October 9, 2015 I think it's worth it then. Especially if you plan on keeping the bike a while. I know most dealers will not void warranty as long as they install the modifications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Eastern Kayaker Posted October 9, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted October 9, 2015 Check with the dealer to see what happens if your bike is wrecked before you complete using the service plan. Do they refund you some of the money? If they do, it is most likely not in your favor. What is their service department reputation? If you have a bad service experience there, you can go somewhere else, but you would be leaving your unused service money there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator sorkyah Posted October 10, 2015 Global Moderator Share Posted October 10, 2015 If its the peoria dealership... double check all the bolts when you get home Ive found several stripped after visiting them The service contract however is quite nice... as is the rpm1 warranty they sell See if you can negotiate that down They'll probably work with you ATGATT... ATTATT, two acronyms I live by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member xcarbonsteelx Posted October 10, 2015 Author Premium Member Share Posted October 10, 2015 Sorkyah It's from the Goodyear dealership. Both the warranty and service plan are being discounted. - xCarbonSteelx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator sorkyah Posted October 10, 2015 Global Moderator Share Posted October 10, 2015 Sorkyah It's from the Goodyear dealership. Both the warranty and service plan are being discounted. I haven't been to that location yet, but I would still recommend the contract and warranty. Thinking i paid somewhere around 1100 for both... average service is 300 or more... 12k is 480. 26k service is 700(valve adjust/air filter replacement) Peoria is a mile down the road from my work (apprentice tech at dodge on bell) so that's my only experience with ridenow... except the surprise dealer that i bought it from.

Premium Member jake Posted October 10, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted October 10, 2015 I hate other people touching my shet but for warranty reasons I will take it to them. I take my 2 WRX's to the dealer for service because they blow up engines and I want them to be replace at no cost to me. So in your case its piece of mind for a few years unless you fek it up. Oh and COngrats!!! you will love this thing unless you don't have a pulse 2015 FZ-07 2003 2014 GSXR 1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
