not sure exactly, but would think anything changing perfomance, and removing stock parts/features, but i don't know, i'm not a doctor

I really wouldn't think so, as it in no way affects the major mechanical components (engine, drivetrain, etc).. but I don't even have a bike, so I'm just guessing. Short answer : Call your dealer!

Hang out there, we may flame, but we don't hate.

My attitude is in serious need of readjustment, and I'm ok with that.

i think the dealer would try to make that claim if your tripple brace springs a crack, or you would have an accident due to some steering related issues, but there is no way he will ever claim that your engine damage was a result of aftermarket handlebars.......don't worry about it, chances are you'll have no problems within your first year anyways
JUST IMHO

I wouldnt worry about it, because if the deal reports taht something minor aftermarket could have affected something, they won't get to do the work and get paid for it. Dealers LOVE warranty work because only they can do it, and they make bank on it ebcause Suzuki has to pay whatever they bill them for

lol dealers love  it when the owner has to pay :) they get more . warenty work sucks . you only get paid what they say it should take ... as far as warrenty goes . its like its stated before . if your tripple tree just breaks or crackes . then you might run in to some head butting . but as far as . any thing ealse no . they have to prove that what ever you did caused the problem . i.e.  you put in a K&N filter and this caused problems and lead to the motor sucking in to much water . or somthing like that . they have to prove it :) i work at the ford stealership as a porter/lube tech. so i see this stuff allll the time :) i mean yes they like warenty work but they would rather have  the ower pay . :)
