Anyways, the way the HD service tech said about the tuning after the smog bs removal made me question why would there even be an issue with the bike unless I mess up the removal that badly. I think I'm just gonna wait another month and take it in for the final HD service before the warranty expires. Then go to town on it, this bike is gonna go through some major transformation, bobber in Jap style...Thanks y'all for the inputs
I'm still not sure how you have extend warranty. that would be a 6 year extension on a new 09. the original warranty is what 2 years i think?
not to knock on dealers but it does seem like they try to get out of honoring warrenty claims. especially if the bike has mods. NOT ALL DEALERS. but mine is one and i have read about others
