That's the link.

I'd take the windshield off 1st, then put the middle screw back in to hold the fairing until you are ready to take it off

Put a towel on your fender, you will drop something
Double the towel over too, if you drop the fairing (while unhooking the headlight) it will dent your fender

The two bolts between the forks on the bottom are the hardest to put back on without dropping them.
I use a magnetic screwdriver, it will hold onto the bolt when you drop it.

It's really pretty easy.

be sure to throw a towel over your front fender, just in case, and also put socks over your passing lights, another just in case thing. and be sure to also find all of the screws, there are a few hidden ones along the sides of the fork tubes that are tough to find unless you're really looking.
