Best way to lift the R3T for servicing?

This whole not having a lifter for the bike is getting on my nerves, especially now that I realize I'll be polishing the alloy wheels on a regular basis since they corrode to hell and back otherwise. So, is there like a definitive best way to accomplish this, preferably without spending the entire household budget for 2014?

Shipping a lift from the US to Europe would probably break the bank all on its own, so I've been looking around and found this.

Minimum height on it is 150 mm (almost 6 inches), and there's also a lower variant that is 4 3/4 inches (120 mm) with a little lower weight capacity. Will the normal one slide in under the Rocket?

More importantly, what else if anything needs to be done to the lift to keep the Rocket on the lift and not on it's side on the ground? Straps? Extra bits welded onto the lift?

I think I'll get one of these, should be perfect for when the bike has to be stored for winter to keep weight off the wheels and for minor jobs.

Still need the ability to hoist the bike that half meter up so the first question still applies - can the Americana lift be made to work and be safe?

Beginning to realize this entire thread was semi-redundant - I did a search for the topic of lifts first but limited it to the R3T forum. Outside of this forum of course there's an endless list of lift talk, my bad. But hey, since it's here may as well keep talking to myself for future reference, perhaps someone finds it of interest.

I have an ATV lifter similar to your first link made up a bracket that fit in to the hole under engine hole size varies between models mine (Std) were 10mm a Roadster is 8mm, this bracket sits over one of the pads of the lifter

I use a heavy duty MClift from Louis (here in EU). I simply put a plate under the back arm (didn't make the pin brackets). Works great and is stable.

Oh yeah, Louis.eu - I've bought stuff from there. Of course, I tried to buy a bike dolly and they refused to ship it here because it weighed over 30 kilos... the Rothewald lift they have appears to be 35.
