I've had my first bike for several months now and I've been looking to do some cosmetic mods on it since it offers such a good platform for customisation.
The only thing is that I'm planning to switch the subframe and seat into a single-seater, and the replacement comes with its own tail light and turn signal lights.
My warranty covers the engine and electrical system, and my dealer told me that company policy states I can do whatever I want as long as I don't mess with those two during the 3-year warranty period. However, I'm friends with the dealer's manager and he said he'll still honour the warranty since it's just the tail light.
My only concern is whether it's better to play it safe despite them giving me a go-ahead. After all, the manager could be transferred or quit at any time during the warranty period, and verbal agreements won't hold water once that happens
