a scissor jack will drop it.
Look at the home built wooden lift, rent a motorcycle lift, do something, but the pushing and pulling,lining up the wheels guts, belt, everything, you're probably gonna shove it off the jack.
If you can park the front against a pole and tie it to it, good step.
I can't see getting it apart or together laying down.
You just might be ahead to pay...

Aaand thats why I ask lol. Clymers doesnt cover it and i take things extremely literal. I may ask around and see, there are a few family shops within 100 miles. Something i can get it done while im there opposed to 3 days. i would adapt my car to haul the bike which would fix my no ride home issue Buuuut the clutch slips bad the shifter linkage is sloppy, popped exhaust valve and so many sensor problems i get 14 mpg in city with a ford focus :p

That's why I leve mine on the sidestand while removing / installing the wheel, and lower the bike to the wheel
leaving it on the sidestand gives 3 points of cantact (and yes, you can get it high enough) and lowering it to the wheel means hving both hands free to manipulate all the spacers, etc
BTW if you get it all together and find the slot for the brake plate missed the tab on the frame, it can be wiggled into place with a prybar so long as you don't tighten the axle and are gentle

I luckily got ahold of a friend back home roughly 150 miles south i went to school with that U I havnt seen in 7 years is going to do it for me for 40 dollars all together. He owns bikes and is a mechanic so alls good. I just have to set the innertubes since all his stuff is tubeless

I cant really dip into corners without a noticeable change in travel path on that rear tire lol first 200 miles i put on it, it would fight tooth and nail to lean at higher speeds
