Yup, scatched the wheel on the left side because I didn't remove the left caliper. SOB! Should be easier putting it all back together this afternoon.
I now see the benefit of having a good lift stand. I'm currently using the 2x4 under the centerstand and strap from the from the triple tree to the ceiling method. Effective but a little sketchy.
I have two d rings mounted to the floor near the rear tire ( 1 on each side of the bike), I put the bike on the center stand and use two ratchet straps from undertail frame down to the d rings and tighten them down. this pulls the front end into the air, remove fender and caliper ( takes about 3 - 4 mins. ). wheel falls off. There are no scratches to rim and no need for a lift.
