I'm purchasing here in Canada a new 2021 Zforce 800 ex and was wondering is the extended warranty worth getting?  I understand the base warranty is 5 year or 5000km which ever comes first with the first year covering bumper to bumper, the remaining 4 is powertrain.  The extended is the 5 year bumper to bumper with unlimited mileage, no deductible, and after the 5 years if there are no claims, you get a refund.  $2900 plus taxes is the value of the warranty.  This purchase is a cash out deal, no financing so the extra $3000+ on top is a little harder to swallow.  Are these machines needing the extra coverage???  I'm a licenced mechanic for 26 years so doing my own repairs is no big deal, I'm not scared of the labour.  I'm not a mudder, smasher, I like my stuff shiny and in "new" shape so abuse isn't going to be an issue.  All salesman are good at putting fear in ya for the extra $$$.  What repairs are common on these units?  Thanks.

Personally, I don't think the extra warranty is necessary.  CF Moto's have their problems, just like all of the others, but with the kind of mechanical back grown that you have, you'll have no problem keeping a Z Force on the trails.

Kinda see it that way too. We down here in the US only get the 1-year so it's probably worth having the extra but you guys getting that extra 4 on the drivetrain..well if something was going to happen it would be within that period anyway so...I say don't waste your money on extra.
