Cylinder head off to the left side maybe, but A’s bike has the belly pan added from a newer model K bike. Oil pan runs the length of the block and nothing but water pump housing in front of that. You can put her on the center stand and have the wife sit on the passenger saddle, that will raise the front wheel safely (as long as she doesn’t dismount quickly) Jacking against the side stand would put the bike on a wicked lean angle and K100 is an extremely heavy motorcycle, you don’t want it falling.
Interesting sidenote: K bikes don’t have a stupid kill switch on the side stand, they have a cable that runs off the clutch lever cable and that flips up the side stand incase you forget and leave it down… clever Bavarians;)
