Default Honda Protection Plan - worth it?

Hey all, I'm coming up on my 1 year anniversary of having my f4i and I am considering the extended honda protection plan. It's somewhat expensive but I'm thinking it might be worth it since I intend to keep my bike at least another 5 years and labor rates are an arm and a leg - anybody have any suggestions, should I go for it or risk it?

VERY worth it. If you get the 48 month warranty (right before your bike turns a year old), you have a 5-year coverage total, unlimited milage. If you get it through your dealer, it should cost right around $560 bucks (that's how much my dealer sold it to me for anyway.)

Not to mention, they'll pro-rate a refund in case you wreck your bike (as I did). NOT TO MENTION AGAIN that you can transfer the warranty to another person, and up's the trade-in value significantly.

So yes, GO FOR IT! It'll be very worth it.

When I got the F4 this past summer they offered it to me for about $600.00 I did not have the funds at the time so I did not get it. I say get it if you want,but it's a Honda and they don't brake that offten.

Thanks for the input guys - I think I'm going to go for it, I know it's a Honda and is super reliable but I already had the bike in the shop once due to some excessive vibration. They said there is possibly something wrong but they wouldn't know w/out a full tear down. I ended up taking the bike back not real happy and there is still something in the back of my head saying there is something wrong and might cause a huge problem down the road.

Thanks for the input! (and of course if anybody else wants to chime in feel free!)
