Title: new bike warranty
Post by suzyssuzi on 12/12/04 at 07:41:27

well i just brought home my new 2004 savage this weekend and was wondering if anyone has had to get any warranty work done . i plan on a few mods if any of you can remember my 86 bobbed savage i plan on pretty close to the same , straight pipe and carb work. i am worried about being denied warranty with these mods. i am not worried about fenders etc just mech . any horror stories ??? thanks again . great now i have two savages and already my husband wants the old one. we will see!!!!!

Had my S40 since October.....550 miles. I did all the 500 mile stuff and haven't got to the 600 mile valve check. It looks like you can check the front without removing anything so I might check it and if it is in spec assume the back is alright and wait til 1000 miles...and springtime....hate a cold garage!

No warranty work, bike runs awesome though I did adjust the idle mixture screw out to 1.5 turns, it was 1/8th of a turn from the factory. Too lean and too many backfires. Now rarely !

i spoke to my dealer, and he said the the exhaust mod would NOT void my warranty.

thats his story for now, lets see if he sticks to it.
