The smaller wrench really helps with the filter, on or off.

Use a torque wrench on the drain plug. 16.5 ft lbs. Also, if you remove the filter with the bike on the side stand instead of on your service stand, the oil runs between the 2nd and 3rd tube of the header, missing the pipes completely ;)
 
Great advice by everyone, but check that Damn crush washer on oil pan bolt. Thats the problem with oil pan strippage. Learned the hard way.
If you make a mark with a pen (before the treads are ever stripped), at least you'll know when your close or where your at, when not using a torque wrench.
 
Small tip...when removing the oil filter, you'll drip oil on the pipes unless you're MacGyver up there (aka dadofthree) and it'll smell when it burns off.  I kind of like this

but many here cover said pipes with aluminum foil or a piece of cardboard to avoid the mess...

P.S.  I've never had to lift the tank to remove fairings 'cause I've got skillz...
