I didn't remove the inner fairing. I removed the outer fairing to get to the bolts that hold the fairing assembly to the fork frame. Once I took off the bar mounts, I was able to gently lift the entire assembly up as you see in my pics. That gave me access to the fork covers and then the forks. I did take off the front wheel and the brake calipers to take the weight off the forks.

In reality, it took longer to get the fairing off and out of way than it did to get the forks out. The forks were the easy part!
