When I bought the Spyder last week the dealer offered me the extended warranty which added another 3 years to the 2 years on it as new. He said it would cost $899 but would cover every thing that the 2 yr warranty covers and I would thus have 5 yr warranty. Has anyone bought the extended warranty if so what was the cost? Thanks.

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.

Hey Toni;
Is your dealer Jimmie at Pensacola Motorsports? If so, that is when I bought my :spyder:. I purchased the extended warranty for 899 and I have the piece of mind for the additional 3 yrs. Mainly did itr because to the three on board computers. Figure if I have to relace 1 of them I have made my money back. It's all a gamble - like buying insurance. :dontknow:

Good to have it
To avoid the worry, 'specialy as its a new item on the block, take the extra warranty, I have always done so on all my vehicles and had to use this twice, the bill on my Ultra was over $4,000 and my Dodge just over $3.000 and lucky for me the total outlay for both extended items was $600 on the Ultra and $399 on the car. Thats some big savings.
If you ride and put on miles, just do it and feel better, as this is such and enjoyable machine, but have one of the most complicated electronics I have ever come accross.

"Worth it to me, with this much electronics on board"
:agree:I bought it myself for the same reason.

I paid $1,000, but this is one trick pony that has lots of trick parts. I would go with BRP factory version. Some dealers offer their own warranty, but if you travel far and wide, factory plan offers broader coverage and BRP should be there for five years. It's tough times for dealers and a few have got caught in credit cruch and filed for bankruptcy.

Haven't bought it yet but you can until your 2 years runs out...without penalty...will get it before then...no question about it!
What happened to yours? Which dealer did you take it to? I am from CT also and don't know which dealers have good Spyder mech.

Bill, yes Jimmy at Pens Motorsports. But he told me that if you wait past either 30 or 60 days (I forget which) there is a penalty of $100. Anyone else heard of that or is he giving me a line? I plan to call and see how many days i have before I make a decision, but Iwould rather wait a couple months or year to fork out that much $$, but dont want to have to pay an additional $100.

It may cost you more than that. While you have two years to add the BRP BEST coverage, they can change the price at any time. If they have early experience from warranty claims they will raise the price for the extra coverage.

I deal with Land n' Sea Marine in Waterbury, CT. I have not had to use thier mechs, except for the assembly and acc installs. But the owners are solid guys and i am sure they would back up thier work.

From what I understand there is not supposed to be a penalty for waiting to purchase. BRP say it cn be purchased at anytime before the 2 year original warranty runs out. May be a dealer up charge??
Hi SpyderByter
They are STRAIGHT SHOOTERS, good to deal with.
Good day
