There isn't a way to do it currently without getting into the code, [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/6545](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/6545) is the issue we are tracking this with.

If you want to try this at the code level, removing the nav link [here](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/d41b31db4dcae67a57024012c52d778e75ee61bc/src/core_plugins/kibana/index.js#L99-L107) and the front end code [here](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/d41b31db4dcae67a57024012c52d778e75ee61bc/src/core_plugins/kibana/public/kibana.js#L14) would be a good start. Things may start breaking if you integrate this with plugins, however.
