Default Where to start?

I am doing all my mods at once but not sure where exactly to start. I have all the parts, just dont wanna put somethin on just to take it off again. Im puttin on the scorpio alarm system, pc3, leo vince slip on, new swingarm, 520 chain n sprocket, k&n filters, n vortex rearsets, n some no cut frame sliders. Maybe gonna take the headers off n clean them up a bit or replace them (kinda almost rusty lookin in color) n im not sure of whether to remove the whole flapper or just plug the hose. O yeah im also redoin the brake lines n the clutch line n puttin on new front brake pads n changin all the fluids n puttin on a new alt cover for the left side of the engine (kinda got a lil scratched). I have all the time in the world right now, all the parts r just sittin there, just dont know where to start...wanna go in somewhat of an order so im not constantly pullin crap off the bike...tend to strip the crapy heads on the crapy screws that came wit the bike n hate usin that bolt back out lol.

if it were me id start taking the swingarm off. it seems like a good place to start. you ahve to take it off anyway to put the new one on and your going to be doing chain and sprokets and an exhaust so thats my opinion. or even berfore that you can get your headers off...
