I just signed up for my first track day with the SD. I got a set of Q3's that will be mounted very soon. Mechanically the bike is in great shape after my valve adjustment and botched/ fixed TPS adjustments

The organizers ask to just disable the head and tail lights. I will remove the fuse for the head light and tape the lens. I can also disconnect the tail light under the seat and voila! I will tape the tail light also.
1: Is it easier to remove the rear turn signals or remove the rear fender all together?
2: Front turn signals I guess I need to lower the front fairing (If it can be called a fairing). Disconnect and remove. Should be pretty straight forward.
3: Side stand. Remove or leave it alone? Will it touch down? It doesn't on the street but I also don't ride that aggressively on the street.
And I will set the suspension to "sport" settings. Right now I have it set in street settings and its complaint enough without being to soft for my taste.
I'm sure there are quite a few track junkies that can answer my questions.
Thanks in advance for your time,
