For me the biggest problem is actually getting it on the 2x4. The bike sits low enough that you have to work it a bit to get it onto the centerstand normally. Trying to get it on a 2x4 is the real trick.
I put a couple 2x6 pieces parallel to the bike in front of the rear and front tires, roll it up those and then get another one crosswise under it where the centerstand will sit. After its up on the centerstand, remove the pieces under the tires.
The '02 had the rear fender trimmed. The '05 does not. Yet...
Ordered a 777HD for it today.
