Bite the bullet and get the stone off the front.
I would agree.
I still have the stock front and rear, but when one wears out first, I am going to replace both with PR2/3 at the same time. I have spent enough time with the stock stuff. Plus, my time is worth money; if I am going through the effort of taking it to the dealer, I would attempt to get whatever other services I could cram in there at the same time, even if it costs more money. Having to arrange a way to get back and there, possibly removing the canyons (for other service), waiting, the risk of them damaging something each time, etc.... less trips are better.
That said, I don't think, theoretically, there should be any issue with mixing brands/models of front/rear tires on a motorcycle for typical street use. It would be good to keep it similar for warmup, stickiness, and such, though.
