Kawasaki Good Times Protection Plan

As a new Nomad owner, Mother Kawasaki sent me the paperwork offering me the Kawasaki Good Times Protection Plan (KGTPP). Since the Nomad came with a 2 year warranty, I decided to hold off on buying any additional years at this time.
??? ??? ???
My concern and question to everyone is:
  • Is anyone else using this program[/*:m:x4ns6zru]
  • Does the aftermarket pipes, BAK, etc. void the warranty[/*:m:x4ns6zru]
  • What does it really cover, etc. etc.[/*:m:x4ns6zru]

Hope to hear from many of you...

I plan on buying this as well but not till next year. I have about 6 months left on my 2 years so i will buy about 4 more years coming next year since I plan to keep the monster she is for awhile. I have not had to do any warranty work so cant help you there. I asked my dealer if I would void my warranty if I put aftermarket stuff on. They said they would not honor it if the cause of the problem was due to my mod on the bike otherwise they would cover it no problems asked.

My 5 year plan just went out this year. I got V&H pipes and a BAK (thunder Odyssey)and TFI. My dealer had no problem with anything I did, said it would not void warranty. The best thing to do is ask the dealer and keep a good relation with them.

I don't like to buy insurance against myself. If I thought two years wasn't enough from MaKaw I wouldn't buy their product. Most problems will manifest withing two years otherwise I think you are just betting against yourself..JMHO.

When I looked at the exclusions on the policy, I wasn't 100% sure of what would be covered!! Since everything that I thought would go wrong was on the exclusion page. ???

You can buy a warranty cheaper on Ebay than MaKaw from what I understand.

One of the guys in my SCRC chapter bought it through Ebay. It is a Kaw dealer, but offering it cheaper on Ebay from what I understand. I think this is the dealer he went through on Ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Kawas...spagenameZWDVW

There are others on there.

I did not extend my 2 yr either - it just ran out last month. Moma kawa seems to stand behind their products pretty good. Two stories to share:

1. Hubbie had a 99 Nomad...was the second owner...at 23,000 miles the POG did it's thing......kawa fixed it without blinking an eye and no fees. (no warranty in place and this was not actually a recall - but as they came in they fixed them).

2. My 05 Nomad - heat shield came off/ fell off one of my stock pipes Sept - Kawa dealer replaced - taking one off one of his nomads on the showroom floor - no fees/ no hassel.

Scion0- Most of Nomad owners with '99 Kawa can tell you about the plastic oil gear...they did not hold up and have to be replaced.....believe me you will know when it goes out....speys oil everywhere. They are made of some kinda metal after that year.
