    Question BRP Best coverage or...

    Hi all,

    Bought "Red Dragon" '09 RS se5, used (1,311 miles). Warranty until 2012. Can I still purchase extended coverage, or Best, or is there another alternative? Is separate AAA needed? What's best, cost vs practical use?

    Thanks,

    You can purchase either of the BRP extended coverages BEFORE the original warranty coverage expires.

    You can expect to pay $800-$1000 for the three-year BEST coverage if you shop around. IMHO, it is well worth it as repairs on these computers-on-wheels can be expensive.

    There is at least one dealer who is a site sponsor here who will sell you the coverage at a discount.

    Florida doesn't sell new BRP Best since March 2010.

    You might try Louis Powersports in Greenville, TX. I bought my 3 yr Best from them at a very favorable price. It helped that I purchased before either 60 or 90 days elapsed from purchase of Spyder.

    Thanks to all for the feedback. I'll give them a call and see what's up.

    I don't know why you can't buy it anywhere and use it anywhere unless it is not honored in FL????? All Can Am dealers must honor, regardless of where purchased. You can buy it over the phone!

    You can buy in any other state and use it in Fl.
    IMHO do not use Pinnacle or any other aftermarket warranties...check with your dealer for answers "why".

    Thanks for the "Florida" info docdoru. Are we still considered a part of the Union.

    Don't buy Western Services extended warranty!!!!!!!!!!
    Paid $1700 and they didn't cover my sprocket and drive shaft. However I was told by BRP that it would have been covered under their warranty.

    I don't recall being asked where I live, or where my Spyder is registered when purchasing BEST Warranty. I suppose if you had a non-FL address it would eliminate any problem.

    The BRP web site has two brochures for the B.E.S.T. warranty. One is specifically for Florida. The Florida version looks to be covered by General Fidelity Insurance Company. Could the B.E.S.T. warranty changed now for Florida so it can be sold by the Florida dealerships?
