so iwas looking at the manual it says to pool the whole motor to change the oil pan. But it looks like i could pull off the exhaust and do it any suggestions

is the bike naked or faired?

my manual says it CAN be removed without pulling the engine.

no the motor does NOT need to be removed.

If the exhaust is in the way, only have to remove that.
I dont recall if it is as mine was already off when I removed my oil pan.

bear in mind tho, if you remove the pan... you WILL need a new gasket.

Yep just drop the exhaust.
I use Permatex "Right Stuff" gasket maker instead of buying a new gasket.
