Sawicki Speed

OUR LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY WHY DOES SAWICKI SPEED OFFER A WARRANTY FOR THE LIFE OF THE PRODUCT? Because you work hard for your money, and because we believe, fundamentally, that if we are lucky enough for our products to end up on your ride, that your exhaust is the last thing you should lose sleep over. Brag about? Yes! Worry over? No. Leave the worrying to us. Other manufacturers offer a marginal one-year warranty; some, as little as 30 days (*gasp!*)! Since 2011, Sawicki Speed is proud to recognize the trust that dealers and bike owners alike place in us, and the trust they exhibit when they sell, install, or ride Sawicki Speed products. CLICK HERE TO REGISTER YOUR EXHAUST OUR GOAL is to provide your bike with the best sound and power combination that it is capable of creating. With that said, the volume, quality of sound, and the performance of an exhaust system will always vary due to engine displacement, cam timing and compression. Sawicki Speed Shop does not warranty sound or performance. IF THE PRODUCT BREAKS we will do our best to remedy the situation. Sawicki Speed Shop products carry a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturer’s defects. Sawicki Speed must authorize all returns, and we must receive the entire system (inclusive of both head pipes, muffler body, mounting bracket, and exhaust gaskets) for full inspection prior to approving warranty claim. Sawicki Speed reserves the right to refuse a warranty claim upon inspection of said parts. WHAT IS COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY? The warranty warrants that the product shall be “free of defects in materials and workmanship during the lifetime of the product.” In short, this means that your Sawicki Speed product will perform and function for the purpose intended and the product will not be defective. It also means that Sawicki Speed will stand behind any defect in manufacturing, for life. Below are just a few examples of items that are covered: broken welds exhaust leaks caused by improper or inadequate welds broken muffler baffles WHAT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY? As with any limited warranty, there are a few items that are not covered under the warranty, such as normal wear and tear. Even though stainless steel is arguably one of the best, most durable materials for exhausts, they are still subject to environmental and atmospheric conditions and require regular maintenance and cleaning. Bike-side mounting brackets are not covered by warranty. Additionally, the included exhaust springs are not covered by warranty. Any product that has clearly been abused, crashed, or installed improperly will not be covered by warranty. WHAT ABOUT DISCOLORATION OR BLUEING? Discoloration is exclusively caused by improper air/fuel ratio, cam timing, carb jetting, long periods of idling, or slow speed travel under load, among other causes. It is the natural reaction of the stainless steel as a substrate and is not the result of a manufacturing defect. Indeed, many of our customers are specifically looking for the natural patina of a stainless steel pipe when they choose our products. As such, Sawicki Speed does not warrant against bluing or discoloration. ARE BLACK PIPES AND MUFFLERS COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY? Sawicki Speed's black pipes and mufflers are coated by Jet-Hot® High Performance Coatings. Jet-Hot® does offer a Lifetime Warranty on their coatings – if the coating fails to protect the underlying stainless steel when properly installed, used and maintained, Jet-Hot® will recoat the part once for free. Coating failure means that the coating failed due to improper application or the coating delivered was not the coating that was ordered. Coating failure does not apply to situations where the coating was not suitable for the application environment. Please be aware that all Jet-Hot® warranty claims will need to be made directly with Jet-Hot®, and will be subject to their review. We cannot tell you whether your issue will be covered by their warranty. TO CONTACT JET-HOT® ABOUT THEIR WARRANTY, CLICK HERE. IS THE WARRANTY TRANSFERABLE? The warranty is exercisable only by the original retail purchaser of the product and is not transferable to any successor owner or other party. In other words, if someone sells their bike fitted with Sawicki Speed product, the warranty terminates upon the sale of the bike and the new owner does not have any rights pursuant to the limited lifetime warranty.
