Beans, what kind of warranty do you have? You've got 30,000 miles on it.

I have an extended warranty that is good until May 2007.
According to the dealer, and the terms of service that VincentHill showed me on Kawi's website, there is no cap for mileage. The stock exhaust is covered as well.

Its all dealer has nothing to do with Kawi. If the dealer would push it, it would already be getting fixed. They lied and don't care basically. You caught them when you called direct. Now since you caught them it wouldn't suprise me if they tell Kawi a BS story.
Thats why I say that; I found a good dealer and I will buy every bike I ever buy there. I called with my fork seals. I took it in it was out in a couple hours on the same day and they gave me new lowers too under warranty. This all took about an hour to find out.
I would reem them and don't let up-not KAWI, the dealer. Cause the manufacturer can only go by what the dealer tells them and unless its major they aren't going to send a rep, they will just replace it if the dealer says it should be covered.
Looks like the metal is just fatiqued from you endless riding, crazy mofo. Dumbasses shouldn't have sold you an extended warranty, it must be getting expensive. They are tired of you and just wish you would go away. By may of 07 you will prbably have 100k on that thing. haha
If it wasn't under warranty you could just run

Consider, IF you get a new stock pipe, either from Cow directly or from John, what's to stop it from happening again.
And
IF you accept John's generous offer, will you be hooped at the dealer / manufacturer level cause WHEN it happens again with the replacement pipe sourced outside the warranty circle.
?
some thing to consider.
I would "borrow" John's and continue to work with the dealer for some sort of replacement unit or $$$ off a spanky A-crap-o-vich unit.

Thanks for all your help everyone...as it stands now, I am just going to let the wheels of the dealer and Kawi work and try to get it resolved. I want Kawi to stand behind their warranty, and I want the dealer to represent me correctly.
I am going to continue to push the dealer to get Kawi involved in this, even more.
Dealer is suppose to call me this afternoon...I'll keep ya'll posted.
Thanks Dave by the way.
Fish and BBM are right, things will eventually sort itself out.
LRG....what the heck can I say to you birdboy. You know I love your dealer too bro, but they havent picked up a Kawi line yet. Kawi would work well with them since they just have Suzuki and some of the models crossover.
I still will always bleed green!

Beans, From looking at everything, there are 2 things that stand out that have caused your problems. #1 you are not Mechanically minded and you are not "ProActive" in support of yourself. Just the Quote of I will let Kawasaki and the Dealer work it out! NO!! You jump on Kawasaki and have them send the field Rep to the dealer to see your bike! The Dealer has already lied twice! #1 saying that there were scratches and such on your pipe and #2 that they6 had even spoken the Kawasaki!
The reason they did you like this is they know you and that you are not Personally AGressive! Does anyone on this board think that this would have ever happened to "ME"?? If you do not stand up for yourself, no on else will either. What do you think got Ralph Nader started? Handling other people's problems!
AT least you came here and got pushed into this. Now, like I told you again, Kawasaki "PAys the Dealer a certain amount of money for the Pipe and work. Unless you are just DYing to have another stock pipe, you can really have the dealer buy any pipe you want and have him install it. The problem here is the dealer will charge "YOU" List on everything, but even still, this will get you about any pipe except a AKRA Pipe! I am not lying to you and this is your time to upgrade! All I would say is if it broke once it may break again and I want something different that no one has had a Problem like this with! Then tell them what pipe you want and have them install it!

Am I wrong in assuming that the emissions warranty covers ANYTHING that affects the emissions on ANY street product ?

This has happened to me twice and on the "THIRD" Stock shock, I got them to replace it with an Ohlins
I am pushing him because he has an opportunity to have his bike made better at a much less cost to him and he should take advantage of it or at least take this into consideration.
Good idea about the Emissions and they are responsible! (This may also be a reason he cannot get another exhaust which "I" Did not take into consideration.
BTW, if this does not come out in his favor, FOr the cost of Shipping, I will "GIVE" Him my pipe! I may be hard, but I am fair!
