it's lame, but you gotta take it off to do an oil change, most also eliminate the possibility of a centerstand, at least mine does

Centerstands are for whips anyway. 
Keep the exhaust and enjoy the extra power and weight savings. It's good to get your hands dirty.

Some of the aftermarket exhausts made for these bikes allowed filter and drain plug access, others did not. If you can find a good performance exhaust now, good luck, as most are no longer available. I have had a V+H Competition Series 4-1 since about 1985. It is a kick a$$ black pipe with an aluminum canister but it restricts access to both filter and drain. You do get pretty good at droping the pipe after a few times though. Be careful with the head bolts and use anti-seize compound.
I would never go back with the stock exhaust, any aftermarket pipe is better than the heavy, restrictive stock system. If you cannot find a decent used pipe, your other option is to modify an early GSXR-750 pipe to fit.
From what I have seen, the canister hanger is the only real mod.
Good Luck, Ed.
