Have I bitten off more than I can chew?

Have I bitten off more than I can chew?
Right.. I have impulsively ordered the following:
Stainless steel downpipes + Gaskets
Air filter
Oil filter
APE Manual CCT
4 Sparks
Some new oil.
As my 1993 CBR 600 is in need of them
However, the extent of work I have ever done on a bike (barr lubing etc) is fitting a new slipon can, various batteries, a new regulator/rectifier (in france whilst touring lol) a double bubble screen, all on this bike and... (get ready for it) a RAM air filter on my 50cc trailie 11 years ago lol.
I have a few guides on how to do this stuff but with no experience I was wondering how hard it will be (doens't actually look too bad to me but then I don't really know anything). - I'm kinda also getting this thread ready as a place where I can ask 'how to' when I inevitably get something wrong
The stuff is all due today, and monday.

Yeah thats the main thing Im worried about. How do you know how much to tighten?
Edit: Just saw you have a service manual already. Just read it several times, in particular the areas of repair that you're going to be performing. Go over to the bike and get aquainted with where everything is. If it's not well illustrated, get a Haynes Manual as suggested above.
