Yeh, I think so.
Getting a road bike which only has a side stand so want to be lift it on occasion.
PITA that you have to have 2 different stands to deal with that task wink.

No belly pan or fairing but it does have the pipes running under the engine so no chance of lifting it that way.

You could make up a cradle to lift on the frame tubes ?

a bottle or trolley jack along with the side stand will normally do the trick to get a wheel out or whatever you need.

 

as long as the color is right .......

what colour would it need to be?
wink

Main reason for lifting would be for chain cleaning & lubing, but no doubt new tyres eventually.

I use axle stand's under the footpeg pivots on my cbr but I don't know if I'd use this method on newer bikes.

As for a road bike chain these days I use a scottoiler and just occasionally degrease around the front sprocket area.

 

Abba stand's are a lot more stable than paddock stands.

That sounds a good plan.

Maybe axle stand one side (high side when on side stand) and trolley jack under low side and then lift her up on the trolley jack.

No doubt I'll have an oiler on her sooner or later.. and probably a DIY special.biggrin

Nice is it the early one with the pc25 engine?
I love the pc25 it's a cracking little motor loads more torque than the newer 600's.

I dunno, it is an earlier one though. When did the PC25 get phased out?

I think 2006 was the last pc25 year. Later has more hp but less torque IMO the latter motor was a bit too wheeze for a naked bike.
