I paid 1090 for the 5yr warranty on a new 2012 800s 15 months ago.
10 months in i had a leaking fox shock....leaking at the seal. Took it off and took to dealer. They said they would fix it under the warranty. almost 2 weeks and they didnt have it fixed nor the right tools to do it so they pulled a new one off a rzr on the lot. no charge since they felt it was wrong to tell me they could fix it.
14 months in and i broke an axle, took axle out and took it to them. I got the run around on them wanting the unit but i had pics to prove the unit,hrs, miles etc. Even told them i'd slap it back in and they could take it right back out or just replace it and make some more money on the labor claim. walked out with a new one for 50 bucks.
Its a good thing to have IF you have a good dealer willing to go to bat for you. Other wise every thing could be "normal wear and tear" or they would find something aftermarket on the rzr that would void the warranty. I just got a new 13xp and didnt get the first bit of extended warranty. gonna see how it goes and if it breaks down every trip out i have a 6month window to go get the warranty.
