I should have posted this a long time ago but never thought of it until now. When I first got my Busa, I used to ask my wife to give me a hand so I can put it on the rear stand. The way I do it, I use a piece of brick (or a piece of wood thick enough to put the bike to almost straight up position) to rest the sidestand on it. Then, I hook the left side of the stand to the spool. Once you aligned the right spool with the right side of the stand, stand the bike a little until the stand grabs both spools. Then you're ready to push the stand down to lift the bike up. Just don't use too thick of a piece to make it fall to it's right side. Hope this helps especially to the new owners. Almost forgot, when taking off the rear stand, use the brick also to rest the sidestand on it so it's not too high to put the bike back to it's sidestand and just give the bike a slight push to the left before releasing the stand.
