"Also, the flag mounts on Zien's bike are not Harley-Davidson products, according to the company.
"When you alter a motorcycle with noncompliant products, that does impact your ability to make a warranty claim," Blankenheim said. "We have a right to protect our product. And (Zien) isn't using our product for the purpose for which it was designed."
This begs the question - if they were Harley - Davidson premium priced
accessories, would this then mean they'd have been more likely to
cover his warranty claim.


Meh this whole deal is a classic
"shoot yourself in the your own corporate boot" by Harley -Davidson imo

Who knows. Did you read that the non-Harley flag mounts were installed by a Harley dealership?

True. It's definitely a tough spot for HD. Damned no matter what they do.
