Motonation Announces
Sidi Boot Warranty
May 20, 2009 - Motonation, the exclusive USA importer
for Sidi boots has announced an interesting and
first-of-its-kind “expanded warranty” on select models
of Sidi boots.
Motonation’s President Bill Berroth said that “Sidi
boots are arguably the finest motorcycle boots in the
world. As such it is rare when a Sidi boot has a
problem out of the box but if there is a defect those
are covered by Sidi’s standard 2-year warranty.
This new “expanded warranty” expands coverage to include
crash damage etc, truly a first for the moto industry!”
The details:
The warranty is now available for purchase for $49.99
to customers who buy a pair of
Sidi Vortice, Vortice
Air, Vertigo, Vertigo Air, Vertigo Rain, Vertigo Lei,
Vertigo Mega Gore Tex, Crossfire or Charger boot.
The warranty expands the standard 2-year Sidi
warranty from the purchase date to also include crash
damage, damage from ripping or tearing if the boot
catches on something and even pet damage if a dog chews
them up!
The expanded warranty must be purchased within one
week of the boot purchase to be valid, and it is
non-transferable and it is good for one boot exchange
(at Motonation's option) only.
Motonation said the program (and the standard
warranty), does not cover boot replacement because of a
decline in appearance due to normal wear and tear or
customer neglect.
Soles that have worn out and need replacement or
damage that might be caused by the rider not replacing
the sole or sole inserts in a timely manner.
Scuff pads on road race boots or damage caused by the
rider not replacing the scuff pads in a timely manner.
Replacement off road boot straps that are needed
because the straps were lost due to rider neglect.
More details: Motonation said that boots will be
repaired or replaced at their option. If they
replaces a boot, the old boot becomes the property of
Motonation. Motonation will pay the shipping costs
back to the customer. Inbound shipping, if any, is
the customer's responsibility or the boots can be
dropped off at Motonation.
They also said that the program is subject to change
or cancellation at any time, but anyone who purchased a
policy will be covered as promised even if the program
is discontinued.
Consumers (or dealers on the consumer’s behalf) can
find more information and may purchase the Sidi Expanded
Warranty by visiting the
Motonation website.
