  2. This limited warranty is a contract between you and Harley-Davidson. It is separate and apart from any warranty you may receive or purchase from an authorized Harley-Davidson dealer. An authorized Harley-Davidson dealer is not authorized to alter, modify, expand, or in any way change the terms and conditions of this limited warranty.
Harley-Davidson authorized dealerships are independently owned and operated and may sell and install parts and accessories that are not manufactured or approved by Harley-Davidson for use on your motorcycle. Therefore, you should understand that Harley-Davidson is not and cannot be responsible for the quality, suitability, or safety of any non-Harley-Davidson part, accessory or design modification, including labor, which may be sold and/or installed by authorized Harley-Davidson dealerships.

No person, including Harley-Davidson dealers, may modify, extend or waive any part of this warranty.
....or put simply - HD will not warrant or guarantee any part not manufactured and /or installed by them - sounds fair enough.

If you worry about the warranty all the time and that takes over the fun you could be having riding your Harley, then maybe you cannot afford it and you need to sell it and buy a Kawasaki Cruiser or some other kind of cheaper bike....just saying.....
I still have fun with my bike and like having a warranty. Not having to worry about repairs gives me more funds for gas and travel. Each to their own I guess.

Of course, some people though, they cannot find a happy medium.

Read the owners manual. Anything that makes the bike non-EPA compliant can void your warranty.

Thanks for the excellent information and ensuing related discussion.

Always go back to your manual when in doubt is the best advice here right?

All the best and enjoy the winter!!
