From #4 on, you're OK
I suppose ur right, Im used of taking them apart totally.
However, number 4, I mean at the top where the fairing is.
jmo, windshield and headlight are easy, I would take them out, especially shield. Why risk damaging. but again just my opinion...

If your worried about damaging the windshield, leave it attached to the fairing.
