You won't damage the alternator if you install too many accessories. If the power drain is greater than the alternator can supply, the battery will merely lose its charge. Repeatedly discharging the battery too low will shorten the life of the battery, but it won't damage any other parts of the motorcycle.
Even the stock alternator supplies a lot of power, especially since the bike has an LED brake light and turn signals.
