Create a new colour (or use a predefined one that you aren’t using in your document) and assign it to the change bar. Set this colour to be invisible in one of the six available Views (e.g. View 1) and visible in another (e.g. View 6). Then use the “esc v [view number]” keyboard shortcut to toggle the colour on or off (this is global and can be used on the Book file as well).

This way the change bar, when it’s set to invisible, never gets sent to the PDF in the first place.
