Yep, go back and read my post, it's exactly how i did it a couple of months back. Just support the front under the frame brace.Originally posted by TomRodgers View Post1980 SG. (Sold - waiting on replacement)

If you have 4-1 exhaust (4-2 might be in the way), put a small floor jack under each side of the frame up towards the front. You can put old inner tube in between if you're worried about scratching the frame. With the bike on the sidestand, raise the right jack up first just barely lifting, then lift the left side. Raise the right side a bit more if necessary. Very stable this way.Originally posted by TomRodgers View Post2H7 (79) owned since '89
