Solution 1:
Log usually may have their function just to register some events for future analisis, as definition you shouldn't have any problems when deleting logs. However, if you want to take a try, save a backup image from your disk (with clonezilla or similar for example), delete your logs and test your system for some time. If anything wrong happends then your log clean was sucessfull. PS: Dont forget to post your results here on superuser please :D
