I used my EazyRizer lift which lifts under the exhaust and rider's footpeg mounts. It has U bolts to secure the supports to the 'pegs to stop a slip. This shows the view with the swingarm removed:- (Yours will look a bit different to my ABS version)

It appears the rear master cylinder and the shock could both be in the way of a cross-bar, at least a bit.
Note also the four drain tubes thru' the guide on the swingarm cross-piece. Take good note of where they run to the LHS. I tied string to the far ends so when they were pulled out I could easily return them thru' the tight route.
I suggest you loosen all the bolts before you raise the bike so you are not applying big forces to a slightly precariously supported bike.
That includes slackening the swing arm sideways adjuster, which I could not move until I made my own peg spanner from an old spark plug tube spanner:-

Good luck.
