What makes you think it's "warped"?

[Hossamania]

You can make a simple wire feeler gauge to measure for warp.
Also, sometimes some pad material will stick to the rotor, making it feel like a warp. It can often be cleaned with some brake cleaner and a red Scotch rite pad to scrub the rotor clean.

My 2019 CVO Road Glide had the front rotors replaced 3 times under warranty for warping.  You could feel it when braking.  Harley spec kept increasing, first time it was 5 thousandths and it was bad.  Last time it was 8 thousandths.  You can feel it around 3 or 4.

Try a different dealer or call HD customer support, plenty of brake rotors have been replaced under warranty over the years.

My 2019 Limited had rotors replaced twice.
I took a video of my dial indicator and showed HD and dealer, and HD decided to replace wheel and rotors. I had to pay for the new front tire, but it was half worn out anyway.
Problem solved ever since.

Earlier wheels were made in Australia, later wheels made in China. Not sure where your wheel was made but it should be stamped on the inside.
 Just what I've noticed on some of my wheels.

Front

All the way back to 2000 when my 01 FLHT was new. Front rotors were warrantied with less than 10,000 mi.

I had the rear rotor replaced on my 17 softail twice under warranty for warping. The problem was the caliper wasn't fully retracing. The rotor would get so hot that it gave me 1st degree burns on my arm when I looking things over. After the second one warped I trailered it to the dealer so the rotor would be room temp. After getting it up on the lift you could hardly spin the rear wheel. New caliper, problem solved.
On another note, I had the misfortune of having a rear tire with cords showing (my bad and another story) and could only get to a dealer for replacement last week. Made a beeline home after the replacement on the superslab to avoid the rain. I knew something was wrong when I was leaving the dealership but I didn't listen to that voice of experience. When I got home the rear caliper and rotor were smoking because the tech couldn't be bothered to check that he had put the pads back in the proper place when reinstalling the caliper. The dealer is now replacing the rear rotor ( I have floating rotors and the rear one now costs $377.) the brake pads and giving me a caliper rebuild kit that I will do my self. How do you screw up a simple tire change that bad? Is it incompetence or laziness or both? They lost money on this deal. (rant over)
