Saddlebag brackets can be left on, mine pulled right off when I did my rear tire switch and lube. You still have to remove the lower fender section and the rear bumper from the ends of the saddlebag mounts.

the shock has to come loose from the bottom mount for the axle to clear the exhaust. . JB

If you unbolt the bottom of the right shock, it should just pull out and off the stud that holds it to the rear drive. If it's stiff, I'd give it a couple gentle knocks from the left side of the bike to convince it to budge.
