BMW Motorrad India: Five Years of Unwavering Protection
During this period, you've got a safety net for covering repair costs if any unexpected issues pop up. It's like having a guardian angel for your bike! Just remember, this extended warranty kicks in once your standard coverage runs out, and it goes the extra mile, giving you peace of mind for a full 24 months, which can extend your protection to a total of three years from the day you bought your motorcycle.
To qualify for this extended warranty deal, all you need to do is follow the manufacturer's recommendations for riding your bike and make sure you stick to the maintenance schedule, inspections, and servicing guidelines provided by BMW Motorrad Service Partners. Oh, and here's the fine print: it doesn't apply if you're using your motorcycle in competitive sports. Also, the warranty won't cover your ride if it's owned by a motor trader, garage, or any related companies, or even by the owner of such businesses.
