Will the V&H slip-ons affect the warranty? The dealer is pushing Bub exhaust and it's hard to get a straight answer from him. I like the way the slip-ons let you keep the origional swept back pipes instead of the rear pipe going forward first then back.

No. And if the dealer insists it does, tell him to look up 15 U.S.C. § 2301 et seq. and that if he needs someone to explain that piece of federal law you'll be glad to get your lawyer to do it. I'll bet that will be the last you'll hear from your dealer about the warranty being affected by mufflers.

The dealer is pushing their stuff cause they want to make money. Maybe they're getting a kick back to sell bub exhaust. Either way the warranty wouldn't be affected any differently between the two. If there was a problem the dealer would have to prove that your exhaust caused the problem at hand in order to void that part of your warranty(edit: not sure about this in Canada). I'd say get them and do it yourself.

He's from Canada. Would this still apply??

Whoops. I didn't notice that. The Magnuson Moss Act would not apply in Canada. Hopefully there are similar laws in Canada regarding warranties and consumer protection.

Hey, all I would have to do is say some of those words out loud and I would probably scare the s#it out of him....
