I never removed mine

 

I removed mine, made it easier. Once you take off the seat, the rear fender is only held on by 3 bolts on each side, two being the turn signals. Its an easy install, first thing I did myself on my bike. You do not have to mess with the rear shocks to remove the fender btw.

 

Removing the fender does give you more room to work in - which is what I did, didn't take the whole fender off, just the strut bar & bolts & tilted it up.
