Hey guys I am wanting to remove both wheels from my gs for some work i am doing and don't have any sort of rear or front stand and was wondering if you guys had any way of securig your gs on something without hurting anything.

Thanks,
Bkaz

So do you still have the center stand?  Just put the bike on the c-stand, remove the rear wheel, then, with bike still on c-stand, prop up the front underneath the frame using blocks/jackstands/etc.

For safety, I also like to support the ends of the bike using ratcheting tie-down straps.  They can be looped over rafters in the garage, but I like to lay a long pipe across several rafters, then loop the tie-down strap over that.  But don't tighten it so much that the weight comes off the blocks, because the straps will hold it up, but not steady.
