> I mean those kind of things don't void the warranty since they were put on by an authorized dealer right?
It's irrelevant whether an "authorized dealer" installed the (un)authorized parts, or some wino under a shade tree. It's whether or not the making of those changes materially contributed to the problem. If not, their presence does nothing to void a warranty on the original and unaltered parts of the machine. (Example: You install a different taillight assembly and the oil pump fails; no problem with warranty.)
The flip side of the coin is that if you have an authorized dealer install a non-Triumph accessory that somehow does screw up the rest of the bike, the mere fact that he was a dealer does not obligate Triumph to fix his mistake for you (ie, he wires the taillight assembly wrong and the wiring harness burns up; not Triumph's problem). Dealers are independent agents, not employees of the manufacturer.
