I am eagerly awaiting my Remus to come back from getting ceramic coated, (got it used for 125+40 shipping+300$ ceramic coating for can and headers) so 465$ total.

Anyway, my question is this: possible to swap out the pipe without taking off the lower fairing on a 93 LT?

Heard that you have to remove the lower fairing, but eyeballing it from below all I see is that I have to remove the left crashbar and the bolt holding the center stand.

Thoughts?

IIRC, you don't have to remove the fairing. Post pix when you get it done.

It depends on how the headers are configured. For example, the stock headers allow eays access with a 12mm deep socket and an extension. On one of my Staintunes this was not the case. I was able to get the headers on my LT w/o removing the fairing but it was tricky. I had to come in from the side and turn a couple of the nuts 1/6 of a turn at a time - a bit time-consuming but easier and faster than taking the lower off.

With that much coin invested in it you better believe I will post a series of pics.

@Drake Given the fact that the bolts are seated North-south, cant use just use a long enough extension to clear the fairing? Or is it a leverage thing?
