Default keeping a warrenty

Fourth harley, but this is the first I bought brand new. Changing my pipes and installing stage 1 air cleaner kit. If I install these myself will it void my warrenty?

The Dealer said no. But they did the install. I would ask the dealer.

It will not void the warranty unless the for some reason damage was caused by installing the pipes or intake

I was told by a dealer that you can do anything except go into the engine without voiding the warranty.
The dealer I bought from told me I can do oil services but need to bring the bike in every 5000 miles which I read into to find was total bull berries.
