No matter what slip-ons you get, there is no warranty issue.
I`m running Rivco`s with 2.5 in baffles. Wasn`t loud enough so I took out the fiberglass. I can hear the tunes just fine.

Switching out the pipes is a common mod and often, my local included, done and endorsed by the dealers.
I put straight pipes on a shovelhead and had to do serious re-jetting with the S&S carb. Changing back pressure has real effects on combustion.
