Okay, that's fair enough and I was posting with a closed mind on the thread topic. I looked at it from the mindset that I don't own Dyna, Sportster or other Harley's so don't even look at those sections of the forum. Carry on.

'17 SGS. The OP asked about mods, I've done Stage 2 (torque) under the 60 day time frame. I doubt I'll do any more mods until after the warranty expires.

I have considered a decatted header, but I don't know if that will actually void the warranty. I don't believe I've seen any reports of denied warranty, just speculation, over it.

I think you get non M8 owners posting here both because some are considering buying one, and others trying to justify the fact that they can't buy one.

I'm thinking with the 8 valves that they have to make some power.
