My guess is to keep your warranty you will have to have the dealer do the stage 1 download.
I don't claim to know, but if you are happy with the performance of the bike then you do not need an aftermarket control module if you do the stage 1 download. If on the other hand you are not satisfied, then properly set up, an aftemarket control module will improve drivability. Most of these will have a different setting for stage 1 download or no download.
I run my bike stock so I have no real experience with this but have read up on it quite a bit.
