Sorry for raggin on ya Blue. There is a bit of frame directly behind the oil pan that is safe to jack on because it is used for the center stand.
If you can block the front wheel so it won't roll forward or backward and then strap the front down to hold the bike upright you can jack on that area and it will lift the rear wheel without having to move it far. I do this every time I clean my chain. If you can pick up a wheel chock like they put on trailers, Pingle makes 'em, you can mount that to the floor or your lift if you have one. Then just put an anchor off to each side of the chock. That is where you run your strap down to from around the triple trees. Do this and your bike will never fall over no matter what you do. If you turn the bike around in the chock and strap the rear you can get the front end off the ground for fork/ wheel work, however there is a bit more weight on that jack. Just pick up a small cheap hydraulic automotive jack. Scissor jacks will fold and tip over on a motorcycle.
If your gonna do some maintenance you might as well spend a few bucks on a good set-up depending on how much room you got. A lift is great, but stands will work as well. I've made everything I lift my bikes with. Never bought a stand yet. Plan on it someday, but if you can figure out leverages you don't need them.
If you have a hydraulic jack you can lift the rear wheel while the bike is on the kickstand by placing it under the shock linkage. You want to be very careful though and this won't help with the swingarm because there will be tension on it. Just saying, you can do a lot with a small car jack and some straps.
When I was younger and broke I lifted my bikes with just a ratchet strap and the rafters. But I those bikes were a lot lighter!
