Default stock header pipe

Ok i have a '94 sporty with the ugly crossover tube between the front and rear headers. Last summer I got some slip-ons that I love the sound of, so I'd like to keep them, but just want to open up a cleaner look of the engine. Does anyone know if I can get stock sporty headers without the crossover tube?? Otherwise I'll probly chop it out and braze a patch over, and get some new heatsheilds.
