Make sure you have a sturdy front stand that lifts the bike from the lower triple(I have a pitbull). Next remove the front fender, then the calipers, front wheel, then you can finally get the tubes out. While you have the calipers off it gives you a good opportunity to inspect the front pads and make.sure they are clean. It all goes back together in reverse order and just make sure everything is torqued to spec. You might have to take your upper off on the VFR.
