Well, then again I did take my current one to have the compensator checked because I knew it was going. They started the bike and said it was fine. Then they tried to charge me 160 EURO for the 2 sparkplugs they put in that I didn't need. Then I decided I'd just do it myself. They had my bike for a week, and now I'm still stuck just doing it myself.
I do my own maintenance but not repairs, unless they cost less than $50 (the ext. warranty deductible) or they're not covered by the ext. warranty (normal wear).

Is the extended warranty that Jim Palmer sells a HD warranty or some other company? If it's an HD policy, I'm curious as to why he can be so much less than what others have paid at HD?

The HD ESP is underwritten by CNA. It's not HD who covers the cost, it's CNA.
As for the price, everything's negotiable, especially when it's part of the deal on a bike (new or used).

+1 on this!! I've called around to other dealers and the prices may very a little but not by much. I've given my Vin to dealers so they can see my bike is still under factory warranty until June but they are all so close in price. I too wonder how others are getting such a huge savings else where on the HD ESP?.

I called: Kutter Harley www.kutterharley.com
(608) 757-0880

And Modesto Harley

I was told that in Febuary 2011 $999 was a deal but Harley just up'd all there pricing...

They are going to see if they can "Back Date" and get me the pricing I need.

I guess a few of us here called these folks after this thread went "viral"

Highly unlikly we will get the old price

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnuso...s_Warranty_Act

Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act protects you from dealers not warranting breakage not caused by your add-ons.

If you add exhaust and your radio goes out, your warranty will cover the broken radio according to this act.
