Forgive my ignorance, but I bought a great used bargain - 2021 First Edition and love it. However, the Warranty expires in 7 days! Crome is 'bubbling' or peeling in a few places. Does anyone know if this is covered?
Is crome covered by 3 year warranty?

Do you have to pay for a transfer of warranty from one owner to the next? If so, how much? Curious as I bought a used 2022. Thanks
The warranty is on the bike, not the owner
I would say yes so get to your dealer ASAP, get your claim officially logged. Then at least if there is a ‘bun fight’ you are not time barred from the outset. They may legitimately try to argue wear & tear or whatever, don’t know, but it’s worth a go. This winter (England) has been terrible for condensation in the garage and numerous times my bikes been left soaking wet from temp changes overnight. It’s been a right PITA. Drying off, applying anti corrosion sprays, airing the garage, again, and again and again. They do need some looking after to keep nice.

Had my handlebar changed under warranty they even epoxyed the flaking to appease it until the new handle bar arrived...
That’s excellent service. Will get the bike in tomorrow

I don't know the answer to your question, but could you be specific about where the chrome is coming off? I'm surprised you are seeing this so early. Makes me wonder if the previous owner left it sit outside for 3 years straight.
