I dont have deep pockets for a new trans or engine this is the exact reason my bike will stay stock until the warranty is up. There are so many threads on here talking about removing the cat and i asked this very question about voiding warranty. Everyone thinks they are safe until MOCO voids them then they are on here complaining.

My bags were FULL, my TP was FULL, and I had a cooler and two sleeping bags in the back seat. But I know that ALL of that was not another 180lbs of weight... the "Average" weight of a rider or passenger.

If you did not have a fifty pound stuffed sea bag with faded WW II markings stenciled on it lashed to the handlebars with elastic bungee cords, frayed in the middle and rusted hooks at each end, you are automatically from this contest ...........
