Congrats. I just bought the exact same bike if that is vivid black. I had a hard time finding one in vivid black and my dealer found only one in Texas and picked it up for me.
I think that "easy ride period" is one gear below "ride it like you stole it". Funny but I seem to see more ladies on Fat Boys than men. But what the heck, I have wanted one since 1990. Enjoy the ride.

Nice looking bike!
If the shop did the work and then voided your warranty then they violated the Federal Magnusson-Moss Warranty act. They cannot void your warranty just because of the installation of a perceived non-OEM parts. If there was a failure, then the onus is on them to prove on court that the parts in question caused the failure. If they installed the stage 5 kit and then had a failure, they cannot void your warranty as it would be their fault in the first place. If you did not sign a waiver then they violated teh law. Plus they cannot void the whole vehicle warranty just for an exhaust pipe install. Headers do not affect no other area of the bike other than the engine. All my servicing dealers that I deal with both car and bike know me as I have called them out on it several times. Same thing goes for services and oil changes. They cannot tell you that if you do not have them service your bike (or car) lest you will void your warranty. Then they, again, violated Federal law. If those services and consumables are not provided free during the warranty period then they cannot tell you that doing your own oil changes or installation of parts and other services will void your warranty.
