Chances are if your on the road you will have panniers. This is where hard panniers can be better than soft luggage, because you can use them as props. Take one off and shove it underneath the engine.
I 've done it by placing the bike on the centre stand. As the centre stand takes the rear wheel off the ground, put something heavy or press down on the back end using the centre stand as the pivot, to bring the front wheel off the ground and shoved the pannier under the bash plate/sump ( with care) to wedge it up.
Job's a good 'un!
