Some please help me figure this out

How would I remove the rear fender on a 2001 Yamaha vstar 1100 classic? The hardware for the saddle bags infront appears to have no way at all the access the screw that goes through into the frame. Second image is what is on the other side of the circled part, it isn’t a nut it’s a screw confused on how exactly I would remove it since it’s covered in metal. Thanks

Is it ok to jack up a motorcycle like this?

Yes, I know motorcycle jacks exist I just would rather not spend the money as I might sell my motorcycle soon. Just wanna know if this is ok to do? Thanks

Assuming that’s not supposed to be there???

Noticed my motorcycles been feeling like it’s stuck in higher rpms or as if the choke was half way open when it was closed all the way and noticed this nut that looked loose? Just wanted to get confirmation that shouldn’t not be there? Thanks guys sorry if a dumb question.

Need advice on paint damage

Hey guys recently got in an accident :( paint took a pretty ugly scrape. I wanted to know if I should maybe apply something to the metal as my main concern is some rusting. I typically keep it garaged but just wanna keep it in the best condition I can. Thanks guys.

Forgive me if the replacement is way past due but I’m pretty new to riding so am not really too sure when they should be changed. Was planning on riding from the Central Valley to Los Angeles soon and wanted to know if they should be changed before I do so. Thanks!
