BMW used 2 year warranty no more?

Postby milleplod » Mon Oct 30, 2017 7:16 pm

Someone over on UK GSer is saying BMW are stopping the 2-year warranty on approved used bikes, changing it to 1-year from January next year. :shock:

That doesn't show much faith in the product if its true!

Its probably affecting sales of new. There is no difference in the package new or second hand - so i reckon a lot of people might now with the 2 year old 2000 mile used option to save a few quid knowing its got new bike back up.

not saying it's true or not but I've not heard anything to confirm that Pete. The 2 year warranty did start as a special promotion and dealerships have to pay BMW £400 for each bike sold so knocking back to 1 year would still be way over the 90 days on offer from non franchise dealers.

Plus the extended warranty can be purchased annually too

I've not seen anything else about it anywhere Steve - could be Rumour Control spouting I suppose!
