That's what I do. Once you get the front wheel and fender off, there is enough room to slide the forks out of the triple clamps. I removed the plastic wiring cover on the top of the left fork to avoid messing up the wire. When doing tire changes, I remove the rear before jacking the front to insure stability and get the jack as far forward as possible. I remove brake calipers, and loosen the axle before jacking. Removing the front fender allows you to jack the front just enough to roll the front wheel out. Makes installation easier too.
