I assume you are referring to the bolts behind the roundels on the fuel tank side panels?

I have the exact same bike as you and this works for me with no hassle at all:

Just use a stubby screwdriver bit holder with the right bit (3mm hex I think).
Then all you do is turn the steering to the opposite side and the bolt is quite accessible.
You do need a light to shine on the bolt but it's not as bad as you make it sound
