My rig is back to the shop for supposed bad TB, which is what I thought was going bad 2 months ago when the tech said it was only the spark plugs. But reading about George and his BR1 and his ECU going bad, I am wondering if the bad pothole I hit coming back from the Redwoods that took out a fuse on the radio is going to be the next problem. I am starting to get concerned as the time ticks away on the warranty and BEST if these rigs are going to be at all affordable after the warranty runs out. I haven't been stranded yet, and enjoy the heck out of it, but in trying to recommend it to someone interested in getting one I find myself telling them it is finicky with a high maintenance cost of ownership like a porsche. Once the warranties run out I'm not sure I will be able to afford the $500-700 in repairs every 3000 miles. Anyone have theirs after the warranty runs out? Still replacing the same parts every few thousand miles?

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Why not extend your BEST warranty and still be covered?
Will help with any possible resale down the road too.
Considering the RT's came out in 2010... you can have it under warranty until 2015 with the BEST... by which time you'll want a new bike anyway....

:shocked: Mine wore out last month... :shocked:
The warranty on my 08GS ran out around a year or so,Then soon after the front sprocket and main shaft went the way of the ghost, 18 Hundred + dollars, And a lot of down time, On My dime. If you can extend the warranty and you don't have an option to get a different ride Extend the warranty.

I thought that you could only get three years on BEST? Plus the two BRP to equal five years.

Question: Since I'm already beyond the two-year warranty, where should I start looking (if anyplace!) to obtain more protection?
