Default New Pipes

I have a 2005 RK classic. I want to put Rinehart true duals on it. Does the installation of these pipes and the remapping that goes along wih it void the warranty in any way?
Thanks in advance.

No the warranty will not be voided. It is a good idea to ride it stock through the initial breakin period so that you can get your 1000 mile check to make sure everything is OK (most serious warranty problems pop up in that period) and Harley can't blame you for any bad installs. Then when you put the Rineharts on and remap you'll really be able to tell the difference from stock. I'm running Rineharts on my Screamin Eagle and love them. Don't forget the Stage 1 air filter if you haven't already done it. If you haven't got the Rineharts yet check Eastern Performance Cycles on Ebay (search under Rineharts) You can save about 200 dollars.

If the dealer does the install, its fine from day one.

Otherwise, take the above advice!

Ditto, It makes a HUGE difference if the bike leaves the shop with the goodies from their nimble hands!
