This might look a little ridiculous, but it worked.  Rear came off first.  Added the orange ratchet to keep the center stand from flipping back.  Pulled the front fender.  Used the front jack stand.  The weights all on the center stand and the front jack.  The rear car jacks on the swing arm were a safety net.  I don't like pulling one wheel at a time.

I can't tell if this is a joke or not so you are going to get two answers:

1) Smarta$$ed answer: Yes because if you don't, the bike will fall down onto the forks when the wheel is removed.

2) Serious answer: Yes, I am with Clyde and just lift the bike by the headers with a floor jack. It only takes about 10 lbs. of force to make the rear tire touch the ground. If I leave the bike without a front wheel overnight, I put a milk crate under the forks and let the jack down until the fork ends touch the crate and then leave the jack under the bike as well as the milk crate.
