All I use is a jack under the bike, slightly more to the right, and a block under the kick stand to keep the bike 'level'. Mostly it lifts the back wheel, but slight weight on the back, lifts the front. Works a treat. I use a trolly jack, but I would imagine a scissor jack from the boot of your car would work as well, just be carefull, I have many of cars almost fall on me because of them. Then again, Iv had a car fall over a trolly jack too.
I have also used a strop/ratchet tie down from the rafters of the garage to lift the bike. But it likes to swing alot.
