Over this side of the Pond it is common knowledge that if you use any tuner other than a Harley-Davidson 'approved' one namely a Screaming Eagle one warranty will be compromised and a hefty insurance premium hike may be levied too as a result.

Most warranties have strict rules and guidelines, wander outside these boundaries and there will be no sympathy from them when it goes wrong.

As stated earlier it is best to check BEFORE incorporating any performance upgrades if you wish not to compromise warranty. You will find it is exactly the same with regards to insurance too! Also get it in writing!

In one of your scattered threads with snipits of information you posted about drag racing your bike.

Regardless, the bike was tuned, modified after tuning with parts her husband bought from Revzilla, and not retuned to compensate.

My bike was built in 1995. Do you honestly believe I care about warranty?

"Warranty" Wait!-What? I thought this thread was about a chick who can’t get enough attention and a bunch of middle-aged adolescent nimrods trying to earn her affection. LOL
I am relieved it’s not something so pathetic. So with regard to warranty, surely anyone doing performance mods realizes they are forfeiting (or potentially forfeiting) warranty support, and rightfully so. I mean it's a given, right? We all know and have accepted that - ya! If you haven't, perhaps you should just leave things alone...

From that description you're talking about pretty much every other forum member here. Grow up and stop the bs. You're wasting a good opportunity to be honest and learn better here.

Is n't this tuning and staging only to be used on race tracks and not on the road? I believe that it says so when you buy all aftermarkets parts...

No. She mostly used genuine HD parts and it says warranty is retained if installed within 60 days of bike purchase. Look at HDâ€™s website for any of their stage kits and it plainly states this. That is a change from the old days.

Doesn't your husband know?
