I am potentially going to buy a k16 .. been looking about for a while, can i ask what is the rough cost to extend the warranty when it comes due with BMW, it is currently under warranty for a few more months and i do not want to have one that is not covered going forward.  Many thanks

It will be in the region of 400 to 500 per year.

It's worth reading the exclusions too. The insurance backed extended warranty is different from both the '3 year from new' and '2 year approved used' warranties.

My 2015 R1200RT is about £38 a month I think as is my K1200S so I'd guess you'd be in that ballpark. If you get a reg number from a similar bike from bike trader or ebay etc then you can get a more accurate idea on BMW insured warranty

At a slight tangent, the BMW Motorrad service plan - Service Inclusive - is worth a look if you are the sort of owner that keeps their bike for 3+ years:
https://www.bmw-motorrad.co.uk/en/service/service-inclusive.html#/section-service-inclusive-pricing

Note that it is transferrable even if you do sell before the 3/5 years is up.
It's definitely cheaper than individual services because every 3rd service is spennie.
