NO, especially if they are the ones that sold em to you!! We yanked off stock tires and rims all the time and replaced with larger ones.
Voiding warranties happens when you modify machines such as relocating radiators to top of the racks,etc. OPT

buy an 800 belt for it, much tougher belt, make sure your alighnment is alright while the cover is off, belt should be centered in both clutches
