Default Replacing Hydraulic Clutch Fluid vs Pipes in the way

Getting ready to replace my hydraulic clutch fluid, overdue due to working too much
I have the Rinehart Slimline Duals which get in the way from the transmission side cover coming off.

Anyone else had this issue?, get away with just loosening the pipes enough to get the cover off or have
to take the pipes completely off?

I know with the V&H Power Duals, they just need to be loosened to get the cover off. PIA to take them all the way off.

I have the S&S power duals head pipe. I had to loosen up the exhaust. I did not have to take the exhaust system completely off.

I have the Slimline Duals also, I removed the slip-ons, removed the mount from underneath behind the transmission, then remove the carriage bolt from the right side mount below the clutch slave cylinder cover, then loosen all four nuts at the cylinder heads, with all that you can remove the cover, but next time I'm thinking I might as well remove the head pipe.
