An HD tech told me their very much so on the 09' and newer. He did not like that, as it meant more trouble for him. His dealership recently started charging the techs the full retail price of the real fix if they miss diagnosed a repair on a bike. Maybe somewhat good for us the customer, but could break their pockets rather quickly if their not sure of a cause. The OBD system isn't quite as elaborate as the ones on cages. Their are still some hit and miss items which could easily be miss diagnosed.
