Waranty

No. You are fine. Slipons only change the sound. You start messing with aftermarket parts like headpipes, cams, pistons with aftermarket tunes and if you have a future problem then it is a maybe. I say a maybe because some dealers are cool and some aren't. Some service dept will ensure the bike is up to spec before submitting a claim to warranty. Some are not so kind.

Did you install them or did the dealer? There are many different opinions. One thing for sure, if you kept the stock mufflers, I'd put them on for any servicing and then you should be ok. As stated earlier, as long as you don't mess with an aftermarket tuner or catless head pipe you should be ok.

I would have believed this OK as well. I'm on my 3rd bike from my dealer, and this has never been an issue. I just got a new CVO limited, and obviously it was too damn quiet. I asked for V&H Eliminators, they told me I had to buy a street tuner. I expressed concern, and was told it was part of the EPA lawsuit compliance. This way they have a record of compliance, otherwise warranty would be void. Not sure that would hold up in court, but I just consider it another Harley tax.

No, I fail to see how just slip on's could cause any engine problems. To deny a warranty claim due to an aftermarket part, there would have to be a direct link to the part failing. Now if you changed headers or used an aftermarket tuner on a 2017, watch out.
