Purchased and ordered my new CBR250RA from the Honda Dealer in mississauga. I'm picking it up Monday. I've been offered an extended warranty, which I've been considering. The one in particular was the 3 years extended warranty (2 years added to the 1 original) for $455. The warranty includes road side assistance for the 3 years as well, which I'm assuming will probably cost close to the $455 alone.
Details on the warranty and included road side assistance

Details on the pricing for 2,3 and 5 years of extended warranty (250cc engine)

Maybe in two seasons I will sell/upgrade the bike and I have a feeling that having a warranty when selling will help maintain the bike's value.
Any thoughts or opinions on warranty? Is it a foolish thing to consider when purchasing your first bike?
Considering the CBR250RA is new this year, it wouldn't be such a bad idea is my main argument.
