as basic security the first thing I've always done to harden a box is to 
disable ipv6.    most sane windows and ubuntu hardening guides will have that 
as the very first suggestion.

I'm sure there is many reasons but for me its just the simple fact that things 
can leak/tunnel through cause not everything is designed to monitor ipv6 yet. 
Some firewall programs I use for example do not support ipv6.  Also It is also 
noisier on logs for admins that can eyeball.  Also sometimes its not just your 
endpoint that can be misconfigured but some remote host you are connecting to.

Basically what you want to do I consider a security risk.   My ISP also does 
not use ipv6 and I have no need for it either,  unless just for some 
experimentation and learning.   But i'm no expert and obviously you have your 
reasons and you should be able to do what you want.  I just hope its not 
enabled by default...
