One should know that it is a general industry direction (NOT A STANDARD by any means) to void warranty or deny warranty claims if there are modifications done.

That being said, modifications to your bike do not automatically equate to a warranty being void. BMW Ducati or any company that has issued a warranty, has the onus to show and prove that the modification that you have done, has indeed caused the problem that you complain about.

A simple modification to any product, cannot simply void your warranty without a cause/effect relationship. Use your knowledge and the law as your ultimate tool of getting what is owed to you rather than threats of media (which is what I've gotten from your first post.) To sign a contract and not even realize that you have a 90 day warranty until 2 months after signing is kind of ridiculous...

I would suggest for the future, when you buy a car or motorcycle that has a factory warranty, to not do modifications until after the warranty is expired because then you are on your own for repairs anyways.

Best of luck.
