Yes. It will help also if you can find a piece of wood to jam under the swing arm to hold the bike off the ground. When the bike's on the side stand, and standing on the left, it's pretty easy to easy to pull the bike towards you so it pivots on the side stand and the rear wheel comes off the ground. Slip a piece of timber the right length under the swinging arm by the rear caliper will keep the wheel in the air. It's a couple of years since I last did it - I bought a centre stand
