I wouldn't. 

I suppose it depends on your relationship with your dealer...

Kind of depends on the dealer.  Some won't care and others might.

To be safe you could take it out.  The bike will still run and there would be no issue.

I brought my bike to the shop today after taking out PCV. When I talked to the service manager he said I could have left it in.He said the only issue would have been if whatever is broken was from the use of the PCV. Now I just have to wait and see what they find broken

I don`t know if I should start another thread in another spot???I received a call from the shop they said my clutch assembly was broke.No damage to the tranny shaft but there were chunks out of clutch shaft and some other broken stuff don`t remember what  .They said they had never seen anything like it   good thing all covered under ESP   27,000 miles on bike

Those extended warranty's do come in handy. I always get one on a major purchase.

 I talked to the service manager today they installed the clutch.   When they started the bike the engine was making noise now they are replacing cams lifters all bearings involved etc.Should they be looking at anything else while they are in there??

For future reference, unless a modification can be shown to have caused the malfunction, the warrantor is required to honor the original warranty.  This is covered under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.

all true

however - the extended warranty does not come under the act - you pay a fee and agree to terms - they agree to fix if needed - one of the terms is "no modifications"

if it were me id remove the thing for service just in case you get somebody who is itching to ruin your day by perhaps - noting its presence on some record that may cause trouble later

if its out of warranty and there is no esp - then do whatever you want
