Motorcycle lift vs oil pan
I was wondering if there's any risk in doing that or if the engine mounts/oil pan etc are up for that?
I've also seen constructions like http://www.flickr.com/photos/kstoo/3660 ... 0566275114 were you build various things to support the bike on the frame instead.
The previous is obviously easier, but in your opinion, is it "ok"?

Fast. Neat. Average. Friendly. Good. Good.
Center Stand
I recently had to work on the back end of my R51/3 and the centerstand was actually in the way of the work I had to do. I held the front wheel with a wheel chock and a lift under the oil pan. Worked just fine. Very stable.
I am restoring a few bikes right now and I would love to have a real table lift. I've managed for many years without one. I'm getting to an age that I may just finally get one. Laying on my back in the garage is getting old.
