Default Warrenty Question

SO I got my 13 IRON Last month, since then I have done ABOUT $600 IN UPGRADES. I added a full Hooker exhaust, and a Arlen Ness Big sucker. I want to take the bike in to have the computer remapped, as well as check the installation of the exhaust (burns REALLY hot). Should I be concerned about the warrenty? The bike only has 110 miles on it and I am concerned they are going to say something about me voiding the warrenty. I should add, that I received no brief about break in or the warrenty. Please advise.

You need some kind of fuel management, your bike is running very lean right now which is not good for the engine. I personally would not run new pipes and AC without it.

rough break in instructions are stay below 50mph for the first 100 miles and below 60 mph for the first 500 miles. Vary your rpms a lot, do not lug your engine but at the same time do not rev your engine high.
