It's important if you ride in deep water(over the airbox lid) It also brings in cooler air to the airbox instead of hot air from the engine. If you run with no airbox lid then you don't really need it though.

i dont ride in deep wate rim just wanting to know if this is important for just riding around like in fields and roads and stuff?

You may notice your filter gets dirty a bit faster but otherwise it'll be fine.

If your in warranty.. make them put it back on.
If you have a problem and they see it's off they will void your warranty.
