bnjeep,
I don't know how you were treated at Southern Honda, evidently well, but my experience was a little different last weekend. When I went to pick up my 500 I met with a guy named Mike. Very friendly and everything went smoothly untill it came time for him to try and sell me the warranty. After I declined he got a little pissed off and told me I was stupid and making a horrible decision. My brother in-law sort of got into it with him and a few "names" were called if you can imagine I was honest with the guy and simply told him that I thought their prices on the warranty were too steep. He eventually settled down, sold me the darn bike, and I got the heck out of there! I HATE feeling pressured by someone to buy something! I was already giving them the money for the 500 but I guess since they sell a ton of 'em anyway they could care less. I've always heard that those guys get bonuses for selling those warranties. I guess my decision cost 'ole Mickey a trip to the Bahamas or something. Ha!
P.S. - I've been looking around for a place in Florida to purchase my warranty from. I tried to get one from a dealer out of state for much cheaper, but Florida has some law that voids the contract if the bike is not registered in that state. If anyone received a good deal on a warranty please let me know!
