Pick up your bike by backing up to it. Squat, back to bike,turn the handle bars as straight as you can and pick-up using your legs. By this method even a smaller person can pick-up an ultra fairly well. Don't foreget to raise the jiffy stand before picking up if it is on it's right side.

actually, you should lower your jiffy stand if the bike is on its right side, that way, you don't go all the way over and land on the left side....
It does indeed work, since I had to pick up my Standard just last week. \\; 360degree on-ramp, slick spot, guardrail, and down. Little damage to both the bike and me. Sure pissed me off at myself, though. I yanked it right up and rode away.
if you have engine guards
you first want to push the bike lower,,,,,rock it down
so you can use the momentum up to right the bike.
inertia is your friend
I mean what I said. Raise it (point it toward the sky) if the bike is on it's right side. It will be engaged \\; (lowered) when the motorcycle is once again on two wheels.
