I have no plans to ask them that. If I thought that would be a problem going in, I wouldn't buy a harley.

I think you're dealer is just being a ****.


if i was worried about hat and needed warranty work I guess I'd just call the dealer first to see if it would be a problem. if so, I'd put all the stock junk back on before bringing it in and reflash to the stock map. easy peasy.

Woo hoo! Congrats! Dealer wouldn't budge on my 2016 Slim S. Hell, they wouldn't even waive the labor charges to install accessories. I think I chose the wrong dealer for this bike purchase.
