If you would like to stick with your current solid pushrods, (since you're having this done) then you'd have to pay the extra labor to pull (and replace) your tank, rockers, etc.

The way I understand it, one would use adjustable pushrods when doing cam work, in order to avoid pulling the tank, rockers, etc. This means that the existing pushrods will need to be cut and replaced with adjustables.

I don't think adjustable pushrods are a "failure" risk, they are typically used to either save time by not having to pull the heads/rocker boxes, or if you are planning on swapping cams repeatedly?

I was thankful for the adjustable push rods in my S&S. the push rod tube orings started to leake and it made it real easy to change them out with these. On my other SG i had to pull the rocker box off. No thanks. Adjustable all the way man.

So the SE255's will keep the factory warranty intact? The SE catalog states "for race application only" for all their cams, including the SE255's, so I'm surprised that they would consider it different than any of the others. It is the stock cam in the CVO bikes, of course.

Also, are you aware that most likely your entire engine warranty may be void with the 255 cam?
Perhaps not with that dealer...but 1000 miles away...you're S-O-L!
Any of the cams in that Screaming Eagle catalog that displays the "checker flag" tab...are not warrantable.
It's your scoot, do what you wish.
