I have a standard 3-ton jack that doesn't quite fit, but it does fit with the saddle off. What I do is remove the saddle, align the jack on the rear jacking point (in front of the rear wheel), place thick cardboard (folded shipping box) between the car and the jack, and lift.

I need to get the custom saddle attachment, but for now this works and doesn't damage the car in the process. I lift one side up, put the stands in, then repeat on the other side.
