To me, it does not look like it will work at all with that pipe. You can see on my bike at the very bottom where my H-D foward controls are, thats where your pipe is.

Forwards will fit just fine with stock exhaust. They make the bracket specifically to fit stock exhaust. You will have to pull the front pipe to install, but the pipe should go right back on with no clearance issues.
