Thoughts on this purchase...
Hey all. I am in the process of possibly trading in my current ride and buying this bike.
https://www.rumbleon.com/buy/1HD1KVC19JB636033
Obviously, you're only going by what you see. But what stick out to you here?? I am not sure if I am being over paranoid about this sumping thing, or if I should be worried. I looks like there is a full rinehart exhaust on there, and that WILL void the factory warranty, correct?? So if I was to get sumping, I would be screwed?? Any thoughts here would be appreciated. Besides the reviews for RumbleOn offering low $$ for bikes, most reviews I have seen for purchasing, have been good. But that bike wouldnt be up here for a bit, and its getting cold here. So Im not sure I would have time to give it the run down this year. (of course, this is WNY and it could be 80* next week.)

I think you answered your own question. A full exhaust that’s not moco will void the warranty. The exhaust can be swapped, what’s can’t be known is if an aftermarket tuner was used.
Spend a little more and get a new RKS with a full warranty

On the flip side, warranty may or may not be in trouble but looks like you are getting about $3k or so worth of extras, the warranty thing has been beaten to death, but I personally know some who have had warranty engine work done with header and TTS tuner and then the guy on here who was denied for an FP3, kind of a crap shoot I guess.

I hear ya man. I have thought about that. But there are zero around here. And when they come in, they're gone.
