Tune for adding a header?
Hello all,
1st let me say sorry if this has already been covered. I have a 17 street glide special with Screamin Eagle Ventilator air cleaner and V&H Eliminator 400 slip ons WITH a Stage 1 tune. My question is, does it need to be retuned for the V&H Power Duals Head pipe that I am getting ready to put on? Any input welcome and thanks in advance!

Understandable, but...the transmission oil transfer issue isn't a warranty concern unless it causes a failure. That is something that would be covered under a recall

Okay I wouldn't think the car industry is much different than the motorcycle...but correct me if I am wrong...If there is an issue, that is the direct result of a manufacturing flaw, and they put out a recall for it, then it is NOT a warranty issue and is something a licensed dealer/shop MUST fix, warranty or not. If it were a warranty, then a person with a vehicle not within warranty, would not be able to have it fixed free of charge...thus... given that there is a service bulletin (which leads to a recall notice 99% of the time) it is not a warranty issue. But I am not here to argue, I would like to return to the topic of this thread with the whole tuning thing. Thank you fellas and have a great evening.

Yes it needs to be retuned, & the SE tuner is very limited in it's abilities, unless you go to a better tuner about all you will gain is a little more sound. Good luck with your warranty-no warranty issue, it's a different ballgame now.
