Giving up on waiting
I just don’t think I can wait 2 years to put a header on my bike! I have 5500 trouble free miles on it now, I’ve owned it since August. I’m thinking....if I make it to 10k and don’t have any issues I wanna open this thing up and put a cam in it! What do you guys think? Sounds like the dealers don’t tell on you, it’s only if Harley comes askin that your warranty gets flagged.

I’ve never worried about warranties with any of my bikes. For the amount of people that saved money buying extended warranties, the same amount of people lost money doing the same thing. I always have cash reserves just in case of emergencies, so I’m not caught off guard anyway.

RCX Tormentor headers sound and perform well with most slip ons. Check out West End Motorsports videis about them. They sound especially good with S&S MK45 skip ons.
I recently read about someone's bike suddenly start sumping at 15,000 miles and was trouble free before that. Until the cause and fix is known, it is impossible to know for certain if you will have a problem or not.
Never believe a damn thing the dealer tells you about anything.

Completely agree with that statement.
I also don’t believe that warranties provide the peace of mind most people seem to find in them. I’m a cynic, so I always assume the company (any company) will find a way out of honoring it. So if you already expect to be disappointed, you never will. Lol

Pony up for the latest oil pump while in there and awaay you go.
Unless your willing to accept ownership of your bike and whatever may or may not come down the road, Your better off riding it stock and get an extended warranty. I would rather except ownership of my bike and do what I want with it. In my opinion, the warranty thing is like THEY own your bike and you have to follow THEIR rules to ride it. Warranty is great for when you get your bike home and discover a defect, after that I have no use for it. Besides that, life is too short. stop worrying.

on the other hand if you're not thrilled with the performance and the upgrades will make you happier then life is short so make yourself happy when you can
it's your money and your consequences..think it through and make a decision that you can sleep at night with
