• 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.

I need an extended warranty after the 5 years BRP allows. Is there a company?

I need an extended warranty after the 5 years BRP allows. Is there a company out there that you can buy an extended warranty from after the 5 years? BEST has served me well the past 5 years, but that's as far as they will allow.
 
I used one from Zurich. It worked just fine the 2 times I used it. I paid my $50.00 deductible and they paid the rest.
 
You do not tell us the year and model of Spyder, or most important, what kind of problems you have had with it when it was covered by the B.E.S.T. extended warranty. In my not so humble opinion, paying money out of one's pocket for mechanical insurance coverage on a vehicle that is over five years old is a waste of money if the machine has been reliable to date. In such a case I would just rat hole the funds in my own bank account. OTOH, if you have had problems with the vehicle during the time it was covered by the BRP extended warranty it's time to dump it and get a replacement.

I purchased a 5 year policy from Discount ESP in 2021 for my 2014 RTL. I paid less than a thousand dollars. Happily, I haven't had to use it but also happily I haven't used my nor my wife's life insurance policies which costs much more. Unlike Jaybros, I felt that 900+ dollars for 5 years is very reasonable and gives me peace of mind nor do I want to dump it as I have it set up to my riding pleasure with no loan payments.
 
LongIsland, If you don't mind, how many miles do you have on your Spyder? My B.E.S.T. warranty expired unused and I now have 77K+ on it with no problems other than parking brake motor replaced under factory warranty and the loan paid off in less than three years after purchase. I intend to ride it to at least 150K or until I can no longer swing a leg over the seat. The pandemic is in its third year of cramping my mileage and I, like you, have it set up to be extremely comfortable on long touring days.
 
Only have 23,300 on my 2016 F3T. Not ryding as much as I used to. Had to replace the wheel sprocket and belt drive. Only paid $50 deductible and the express shipping for the parts (I was traveling at the time). I'm going with DISCOUNT ESP which is an extended warranty. Buy two years, get the third year free.
 
I was wondering how these type of plans work. Do you pay out of pocket and then submit a claim with whoever issued the extended warranty or does the shop deal with them?
 
It works just like the Spyder warranty. $50 deductible for work to be done and the company pays the rest to the service department. Discount ESP.
 
I used one from Zurich. It worked just fine the 2 times I used it. I paid my $50.00 deductible and they paid the rest.

I’ve used Zurich for years as well. Of the few claims made, on 2 different Spyders, each at different dealers, there has never been any issues with getting it covered.
