Default 2018 Fatboy

Just picked up my first HD, a 2018 FLFB. Looking for suggestions on a sissy bar. I’m leaning towards Cobra now. Thinking I’ll go with Cobra Neighbor Hater pipes. If anyone has experience or suggestion, I’d appreciate feed back.

Need to get clarification whether new pipes will void warranty or not.

Good choice on the '18 FB. You will get many different opinions on the warranty here. I am counting on slip-ons not affecting the warranty unless they actually cause the problem. I am running the stock pipes with Tab Performance mufflers with the Zombie baffles on my '18 Fat Boy 114. My understanding is if you use a non Harley aftermarket tuner that will void your warranty however that should only apply to the engine I believe. I am still running the stock tuner with no performance problems. Probably will soon go with the HD SE tuner to avoid possible over lean mixture due to better breathing with the new mufflers.

Still haven’t decided on exhaust. Really been eyeing up the tap performance and the cobra NH still. Just watching YouTube sound clips and videos to get a visual.
