Default Using motorcycle jack

Hey all, please forgive me if this should go in the newbie section. What is the best way to lift the F2? Looks to me like the exhaust is in the way. Does this need to be removed?
Thanks for your understanding and advise.

I've never used a "lift" style jack like you probably have, Most commonly used for sportbikes are front and rear stands.

Those jacks are mostly for dirtbikes and 1800lb cruisers where the frame rails are the lowest point on the bike.

Because the frame does not loop around the motor, and the oil pan is the lowest spot you could jack from, I don't know if I would use a bike jack on it... The fins on the oil pan are not very strong so be cautious if you are brave enough to lift it from the oil pan.
