Bought a better lower chaincase bearing for the viper. Do I need to get the grease out of the new bearing or can I leave it in ?

grease can be left in. oil will just wash it out as you ride.

I grease mine every time I am in there with Mobil 1 synthetic moly-lube and then use synthetic oil in the chain case. I have never had an issue with doing this and have been doing it in all my sleds since the late 90's.
It would be best to match the synthetic grease to synthetic oil to ensure there isn't some sort of incompatibility going on between the grease and oil if one were to be petroleum based and the other synthetic.
