After going through everyone's helpful suggestions here on how to lift the bike, I have come up with the following, which works best for me.

1) Remove the passenger seat/cowl.
2) Set up the bike on its side-stand on top of a 2x4 like Kelly suggested.
3) Stand to the brake side of the bike (exhaust-side) and use your hip as Richard suggested to brace the bike.
4) Take your rear stand and fit it to the spools.
5) Lift the bike with one hand by grabbing on the bar above the taillight while simultaneously pushing down on the rear stand.
