Default Warranty Question

I was told by a friend, if I put on a stage one from Fuel Moto, it would void my warranty.

I am going to call Harley tomorrow and ask them. If this is true, just another way to keep all work in house.

I may not like it, but I guess we will have to live with it.

All comments welcome!

Use the search function, there are a lot of threads about warranty.

The short answer is no, unless the modification caused the failure. It is the dealers responsibility to prove that any modification caused the failure

Unless the after-market add-on caused a problem - you're good. They would have to prove the tuner was root of failure.

One resolution - get a service manual & do your own work on bike...
