• 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.

BEST WARRANTY Questions

My Spyder's factory warranty runs out on Aug 25th 2011.. I have been seriouly considering getting the BEST warranty..

I would like to know other Riders opinioins/experiences on/with this extented warranty..

Also.. I called two dealerships and asked about the cost of getting the BEST warranty 36 months.. (not BEST PLUS) I made that clear to them both.. after giving them my info and vin # this is what they said..

First dealership quoted me a price of $749.00
Second dealership quoted me $1049.00 ..

that is a $300.00 difference.. anybody else see a major price difference between Dealerships...???

Ofcourse I will be going with dealer number one if I get the warranty..:2thumbs:

Now here is the Strange Part....:yikes:
to beat all the second is an offical Can-Am/BRP Dealership sells nothing but BRP products..
The one that quoted me $749 is a multiple Brand Cycle Center.. That's just sad in my book.. When a Official nothing but BRP Dealer Selling the same BRP Warranty prices it $300.00 Higher than a Cycle Center that handles all different kinds of powersprot vehicles.. Hmmmm.. Looks like it would be the other way around.. sounds like someone is Scamming... :lecturef_smilie:
best to shop around for BEST ;)
 
I paid about $800.00 for the BEST coverage for each of our Spyders. I wasn't going to get it at first, but looking back on it I think it was a good idea. These machines seem to be prone to strange and exotic problems, many of which I would not be able to work on myself due to lack of facilities.

So far both machines have been very good, but I just feel better knowing I'm covered. By the time the BEST runs out I'll more than likely be ready for a new machine anyway. And then we'll start all over again! :D
 
$1049 is list price. I was quoted $880 but after negotiations I got them down to $800. Some members have reported lower prices but my dealership has a good service department so I don't mind paying a little more.

Thanks to all of you for your posts.. i was just trying to see what others thought about the BEST Warranty and if it was worth getting..
 
BEST warranty

Call and speak to Bryce Page at Bert's Megamall. She gave me a good prices. It does not matter where you purchase the warranty as all BRP dealers will honor it.
 
The BEST warranty can be used at any BRP dealer right? Could you buy it at a dealer willing to sell cheap in Florida, and use it at a local, say Las Vegas dealer?

Of course the local dealer won't be thrilled, but with my dealer, I don't really care. Taking it to them is a crap shoot. Mind as well pay less for them to screw things up (laughs).

I believe there was a post stating that the 'BEST' was not available in Florida. It had to do with some state regulation.
 
I'm relatively new to the Spyder-world and still a little naive :dontknow:. In plain English, what is the BEST plan. Is it simply an extended warranty or is it a "pre-paid service" plan? Thanks ahead of time for the input, guys and gals!

The 'BEST' extends your warranty. The 'BEST Plus' has some pre-paid maintenance included plus extends the warranty.

Extended warranty, plus Spyder road service. The BEST Plus also covers the 600 mile service and one annual service call.

I wonder what the dealer would do if you've already had your 600 mile service (I've got over 6K on the RT-S already.)? Think I'll call and find out.....

p.s. Thanks for the replies!
